A lot of times we see what we want to see,
or we see what we don't want to see.
But not often enough do we see what's really there.

"He loved to joke and laugh" they said

They did not know
They did not know
What was in his dark

He had looked for the door all his life
A luminescent light in the cracks of his dark

Yet he found himself on the outside
Always looking in…

"Too cold for him out there, his heart must have stopped they said"

They did not hear him

But the dead man still lay moaning

“I was too far out in the cold all my life"

They did not listen to him

When he left
memories of the past, swept through their minds.
The way they laughed and played all the time.
Things about him,things they only knew.
When he left their world became blue.
Now what will they do?
Their lives had so much meaning,
until he left.

and they found themselves on the outside.


...in the cold.

...and then I looked up...

And then he looked up
and saw the light.
Slowly rising to the top
he was no longer drowning
in the mire he created.

A new day began.....

She is the goddess birthing the stars, the univese...

Beautiful pix, Tony...sorta looks like Red Rock Canyon, somewhere between
CA/NV...

No??

tony23k said:

Within this silence
you touch me
firm
in your affection
warmed
to you I turn

My rock
My solid ground
Even at a distance
To you I still return
My rock
The centre of my affection

25+ miles north of Vegas...
and the weather was gorgeous.

tony23k said:

I've been through there.....it's beautiful, yet desolate...

obsessed said:

so serene and peaceful...
I know I'll get a couple of paintings from this.

Later this fall we want to go back.
Go a little further to "Mt.Charleston"...

Just meaning I know you probably have a lot of paintings you'd like to do..
