THE EXPANSE

Tuesday, January 15, 2013.  I recognized this solitary vessel, floating in the broad expanse, alone and isolated from community.  Is it drifting or resting, bound for a destination or not?  Or could it be a pleasure boat, unmoored, but containing delights beneath its peaked roof.  See how the moon illuminates it on this night voyage with the secrets beneath.

SAFE HARBOR

Friday, September 28, 2012.  A quiet little harbor at moonrise.  Lights in the distance beckon you to visit, but who could leave a berth so still and calm?  Maybe tomorrow, when the light of day makes travel seem possible, adventurous and necessary.  But tonight, maybe just dinner and a conversation, and remembering among family and friends.
