Dusty Steps

With Nothing To Say
I Must Have Run Out Of Words
Steps To My Consciousness Dusty, Cluttered
Not A Single Idea To Share

Is This Writer's Block?
Has The Light Of My Creativity Faded?
Have I Said All I Need To Say?
Or Is Something Brewing Deep In My Being?

Faith To Wait For Images
Colours And Patterns Attaching To Picture
Broad Strokes of Wisdom
Only Spirit Can Deliver

Since 2005


It has been seven years since I began this BLOG. In that time life has gone though many transitions. People that I have cared about have succummed to illnesses.  I have been ordained as a Priest.  I have both a natural and god granddaughter.  I have lost wieght, gained weight, and lost weight again.  I have seen Paris, London, and some of the Middle East.  I continue to grow in my spiritual journey and reach out to the world through my soul. 

This BLOG has been a way for me to do self-reflection, to revisit the images that my camera has seen and reflect with words that match the essence of the pictures.

I have appreciated the comments - sometimes sparse in thier arrival - from those who have viewed this BLOG often via a chance serendipity of linking to it.

As long as it contiues to serve a soulful purpose I will remain faithful to its process...

We Shine Brighter Still

I Sit And Reflect
Think About The Day That Passed
About Tomorrow
