Whippet Wisdom – a Highland Journey
A journey through the seasons with two adopted whippets, a poet and a camera
dusk falls
between driftwood and stones
a dog sees
winter’s light on water
river’s spirit in the bay

Wishing you all a happy Thursday and a peaceful rest of the week,

Rag Tag Daily Prompt: Abundance
on the weathered wooden walkway
marram grass bursts through the slats
birds rest on the handrails
human hands no longer touch
~ structures built to help us ~
are smoothed by wind and rain
the last two years have taught us
to seek the light again
where natural kindness rises

This beautiful hooded crow waited patiently for Eivor and Pearl to stop sniffing the sea urchins before walking over.

hopes and dreams
the warmth in your voice
travels with us
where the river meets the sea
older seals are barking

Lens-Artists Weekly Photo Challenge #181: Double Dipping
The eastern bank is stacked with stones, smoothed by journeys through ice and water. Sitting down with a pebble in my hand, I close my eyes and feel the pulse of the mountain, a deeper dimension of where we all come from.
heading north –
the wind on the river
brushes the trees

old ways
are vanishing
a new dawn
filters gently towards earth
ready to be still and seen
