“The next wall”

The next wall

Built with hopes and bones, /

we assail the next brick wall. /

Mortal to mortar.

Haiku and photo: “Dance”

Dance

Breeze sets the tempo. /

Autumn sun lights the brick stage. /

Flag and shadow dance.

Poetry and photo: “Lichen”

Lichen

Pathways, walkways, walls — /

Lichen covered here and there. /

Brick, stone, wood, and dirt — /

Decay is Time’s only care. /

Taking down the now — /

Leaving pieces that we share. /

Pathways, walkways, walls — /

Leading onward, lichen dare.
