Awareness is everything.


Poem Artwork

(Photo I took along the shore of the Columbia River near White Salmon, WA) 

 

Courage on Fire

 

Keep watching, keep looking

Keep listening day and night long —

For something elevated’s coming

Both forth and back and beyond.

 

Keep singing together

Until every language knows the song

And the sound becomes greater 

Than the smoke in the air.

In tune with life.

A stark warning yet delivered with the hope of
redemption…and deliverance…
Very carefully and subtly expressed…
Which carefully adds to its impact…
An outstandingly stunning photo
which helps to add to our awareness of
what could be lost forever…

Great poem!

A noble aspiration, succinctly put; sadly, the smoke in the air is still think and pungent. Love the photo. Nature's moment captured.

Makes me think of the line from the song, "I am the God of hellfire! And I bring you fire! We all have to sing the same song when that begins to happen. Great metaphor.



But you show one of those pleasant sunsets that we've been seeing lately. Perhaps there is a bright ending after all the smoke clears.

Sadly, few of our poets can put together metaphors, similes--laying in a dab of the enigma--and present a canvas of colors whose audacious movement and blending work so seamlessly as your talented pen can create. Yes, the smoke seems to get thicker and thicker.

It would be nice if everyone on earth sang the same song, knowing the language.
