The Mag -124

I’ve set down anchor

in the sea I find myself in.

Not the one,

I would have sailed
by choice.

It’s the wind

that blew me here.

My course altered

from navigation

carefully plotted.

Tossed into the deep

I am surfacing,
to merely float in place.

White flag surrender.

~ Karen

The Mag - 121/OSI 224

Still Life, 1670, detail by Jean François de Le Motte

a small treasure found

tucked away

among the debris   

of what once was

shinning brightly...

beckoning

longing to be remembered...

and loved once again

Wrinkles In Time

master of the hours

labouring furiously

smoothes wrinkles in time

sheltered soul oblivious
