murmuring water



inside of his cave
in the midst of the night
murmuring water…

Genesis

In The Beginning  by Paul Klee, 1916


artist' arm
rests at the windowsill
come what may...

eloquent gesture
a muse touching a void
am I invisible?

transcendental
drawn into vortex
I soar...

fishy



eyes are probing
the depth of tone
declassify

my Achilles' heel
clinging for Lifebuoy

Enchanted viewer

Exposure by Antony Gormley


Mindful
to notice the early bird
stroll

a guardian
vagabond vessels glide by
in moonlight

the witness
water, returning its will -
full circle

Hands On

'Who's Afraid of Red, Yellow, and Blue' by Barnett Newman

Drama,
when bored of mundane
in red, yellow, blue
the tongue of anger
the heaven I trust

absorbed,
the colors shed light,
the wisdom came through.

a gust of wind


With every gust of wind
the waves grow high
sandpiper runs…

With every gust of wind
I feel the cooling breath
you're close, autumn.

The waves grow high
why waiting long
to fall in latter.

Sandpiper runs
to pick up a worm
from jaws of an ocean.

With every gust of wind,
the waves grow high
a day set in motion...

sacred

AliExpress | Charlesmood for music | Hand serigraph Italian Art

The atmosphere of Time
the corner of your eye
informal triangle-in-square

along the sacred body
indulgent transcendental spin.
