Changes Of The Tide

Post by carndo » Thu May 10, 2018 3:20 pm

soulships
soaring within the horizon
changes of the tide
upon the autumn
that undertow
which speaks
within...
whispers
inside those shadows
edges that somehow find
a simple resonance
in the silence
and yet...
I hear it clearly

Man's Progress

Post by carndo » Thu May 10, 2018 3:25 pm

these days with man's progress
specifically with today's politics
we have to save today's paradise
to only build a parking lot
really?
does that make sense?
no I think not
but then when will we realize
that we can not eat, drink or breath money?
if we keep looking down that road
we'll be looking at our own extinction

Refuge From The Wind

Post by carndo » Thu May 10, 2018 3:30 pm

that refuge from the wind
where you finally feel the warmth
from the sun
that somehow
brightens the day
and one can continue
what life intends
whatever unfolds
on the road ahead
who can tell?
not I
I'm no prophet
just a commoner
in this world
we call earth
and frankly
I like it
that way

I Keep Moving On

Post by carndo » Thu May 10, 2018 3:36 pm

that slow breeze
within the last day of February
where grey clouds
cover the sky
looks like it may rain today
this time of the year
in east texas
but at least it isn't 40 degrees
maybe someone above is looking out for me
with a smile
still I continue
with life's adventures
and we'll see
where they lead
who knows what I'll find
but that's the fun
within my walk of life
and somehow
I keep moving on

Within The Horizon

Post by carndo » Thu May 10, 2018 5:44 pm

sentinels
within the horizon
where the ancient
find that echo
that whispers
honor
those sandstone monuments
within the southwest
where one hears
coyote clearly
as his humor
speaks those truths
within everyday
life
and as you listen
to his tales
one hears
that simple wisdom

Love Finally Blossoms

Post by carndo » Fri May 11, 2018 8:05 am

serine
within that time
held only
in a simple promise
whispered within the heart

memories felt within the reflection
tangled scents
mingled in the essence
of romance

perfumed whispers
enveloped
in that one special moment
for two

trickling down
heart to heart
where lips meet

and somewhere
love finally blossoms

Those Rhythms

Post by carndo » Fri May 11, 2018 8:21 am

those rhythms
which harmonize
that simple echo
yes a melody
which is felt
deep within
listen...
can you hear it?
those whispers
that rage
the spirit
which begs to be simply
heard
communion
in those lyrics
within the light of the heart

Where One Hears Those Whispers

Post by carndo » Fri May 11, 2018 9:43 pm

to touch
within that place
where one hears those whispers
within echoes
which reveals
that sacredness
felt deep within

to honor
those ancient
who have walked
paths
from a distant time

can you hear
those who have walked
shores
within this country of ours?

Smiles Within The Chaos

Post by carndo » Sat May 12, 2018 7:09 am

learning to roar
within this
obtuse, unfettered
cage
that we call
Earth
where the silence
is echoed
in those shadows
where the darkness
smiles within the chaos
and whispers
come find me

Time Has Only Begun

Post by carndo » Sat May 12, 2018 7:15 am

scarlet canyon walls
where voices reign
within that ancient past
those ghosts that whisper
within the clouds
echoes in the southwest
where the moon
is luminescent
in that glow
past midnight
and yet...
time has only begun

Dancing With Life Itself

Post by carndo » Sat May 12, 2018 9:04 am

wind drawing circles
within an orange horizon
where a scarlet moon
whispers that sacredness
where coyote laughs
howling that somehow
time finds that humor
complete within a certain passion
distinct distractions
that leave one wondering
where one is dancing
with life itself

Within A Crescendo

Post by carndo » Sat May 12, 2018 9:17 am

silent wings
that soar within the wind
horizons met beyond the twilight
clouds
that find
those whispers
only in a moment of time
yet hover
within a crescendo
serenade within
that current
almost like a memory
that has slipped
from one's grasp

Whispers Of The Ancient

Post by carndo » Sat May 12, 2018 10:29 am

within those trails that I've followed
arises a cave
whether explored or not
I know not
yet it is an interesting find
I climb to find a ledge
that overlooks the valley
where an eagle soars
down below
the Dolores River flows
against the San Juan's
which eventually arrives
into MacPhee lake
where the Anasazi
still whisper
if one listens to the ancient ones

Unanswered Reflections

Post by carndo » Sat May 12, 2018 2:13 pm

thresholds
of those dreams
lingering in the past
mysteries
that somehow are never solved
yet...
something is somehow
echoed
within Unanswered reflections
broken silent murmurs
that are forgotten
within those currents
images haunted
with regret
where silence
overwhelms
and somehow
those answers are never found

Ancient Memories

Post by carndo » Sat May 12, 2018 2:37 pm

sandstone cliffs
that reach where
eagles soar
in currents
and mists of the San Jauns
blood red memories
where ancient people
lived in canyons
called the Anasazi
cliff dwellings
against what is known as
Mesa Verde
spirits still sing
with Kopokelli
where the flute
still remains
