Clarity

it makes me happy
when little words
come bubbling up to the surface
from a place deep down within



with loud insistent voices
dressed unashamedly
in the bold and brash attire of truth

                                
 
or words that clarify
and render crystal clear
some nebulous idea
that had up till now


been as murky
as the sludge
at the bottom of the backyard pond.


 
i love when that happens.

  2. I know just what you mean about those moments. Feels so wonderful. Your photographs and your words meld so beautifully. And yes, what is the top one? Did you play with it in photo shop? Looks like a very happy stream blowing bubbles to me ... :o)

  3. Actually, it's what's left of an ocean wave, caught in those few seconds before the bubbles disappear and, no, it hasn't been "altered" - just the way the bubbles reflect the light. Thanks for asking!
