Horses In the Pasture — Photo-Artistry by kenne
I came to the country seeking peace,
A place where horses graze in the pasture
Providing a visual game, or is it just old age.
A place as clouds disappear over the hill, I
Seek shade under the trees along the fence.
“There’s more to a picture than meets the eye.”

“Work while it is called today,
for you know not how much you
may be hindered tomorrow.
One today is worth two tomorrows,
never leave that til tomorrow
which you can do today.”
— Benjamin Franklin
Mt. Meant-To
Mr. Meant-To has a comrade,
And his name is Didn’t-do;
Have you ever chanced to meet them?
Did they ever call on you?
These two fellows live together
In the house of Never-win,
And I’m told that it is haunted,
By the ghost of Might-have-been.

Hiking Boots — Photo-Artistry by kenne
The mountain seems no more a soulless thing,
But rather as a shape of ancient fear,
In darkness and the winds of Chaos born
Amid the lordless heavens’ thundering–
A Presence crouched, enormous and austere,
Before whose feet the mighty waters mourn.
— from Night On the Mountain By George Sterling
Hikers — Photo-Artistry by kenne
As aging hikers
We walk the trails
Under the desert skies
Where nature welcomes
And challenges us
In our active desire
To remain forever young.

“In its Greek meaning, the verb “to see” incarnates theoretical man,
an omnidirectional ball of open eyes.
What purpose does theory serve?
The surveillance of relations, or the examination of objects?”
– Michel Serres, “Panoptic Theory”

Haphazardly flies around
Lands on a button.

Butterfly (Two-tailed Butterfly) and Flower (Mexican Bird of Paradise) Photo-Artistry by kenne
The meaning and purpose of dancing is the dance.
Like music also, it is fulfilled in each moment of its course.
You do not play a sonata in order to reach the final chord,
and if the meaning of things were simply in ends,
composers would write nothing but finales.
— Alan Watts
