Vibrant Flower

From a stark background

life emerges;

Ruby and violet

bursts forth,

Ivory-tipped tendrils

reaching toward the sky.

A creature shadowed

in darkness

Rests within its center,

bathing in its light.

Weathered in Time

The worn brick

and weathered layers

tells a story

That reaches back

in time, a tale

as infinite as

The endless waves

crashing onto shore;

a hand reaches

Ever so gently to

touch the sun-burned

walls, eager to

Listen and learn.
