A Morning Hike In The Park   Leave a comment

Morning In The Park-72A Morning Hike In Saguaro National Park Hike-East (01/03/20)– Image by kenne

On the trail a morning haze

Slowly disappears as the sun

Lifts over the mountains

Across rocks and cactus

Leaving behind still air

Warmed as the sun

Moves desert shadows

Plants shinning with dew

A picture I try to capture

Lost in the passing moment

Hiking the desert trails

Looking down the miles

Collecting memories

To be lost with time

But not in mind.

Sonoran Spring-0743-72Sonoran Spring — Image by kenne

A sonoran spring
A joy to experience
On its many trails.

Hike from the valleys
Through many biome changes
To the mountains high.

Many sky islands
Each having its own cycle
For propagation.

Picacho Peak State Park-72Desert Trail — Panorama by kenne

Albert Einstein believed we suffer from an “optical delusion”
which separated us from the rest of creation. His solution?

“Widen our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures
and the whole of nature in its beauty.”

Sabino Canyon Fall-2-art-2-72Winter In Sabino Canyon — Photo-Artistry by kenne
On this day in February, we are in Kingwood Texas celebrating Jill’s birthday. 

Days of Contrast

Winter in Sabino Canyon —
Blue is the color of the sky
Golden the color of desert grass
Mountain colors changing
With the angle of the sun.

Winter on the Gulf Coast —
Gray the color of the sky  
Damp air chills to the bone
Diminishing a desire to walk
In the east Texas woods.

 In the fall
beauty takes on
a different form
changing colors
minus the fresh
softness of spring.

Being in the right place at the right time
is knowing how to stay active and look around
as if it were your last day on earth.
It’s a wonderful world out there.
