Silhouettes abound

Outlining the saguaros

In the morning sun.

Lots of little seeds

Replaced the yellow flowers

Scatted by the wind.

Corvette Raffle at St. Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church Tucson Greek Festival — Image by kenne

With so many leaves, the sun waves good day
with many stands shines, shines the sky
and those ones inn irons and those others are in the earth.

Quiet anytime now, the church bells will signal.

This earth is theirs and ours.

Beneath the earth in their crossed arms
they hold the rope of the church bells,
they are awaiting the hour, waiting to signal the resurrection
this earth is theirs and ours
no one can take it from us

Quiet anytime now, the church bells will signal.

— from The Church Bells Will Signal by Yiannis Ritsos

You try not to stop

When food looks and smiles so good

How can you say no?

Human-Kind: Be Both   Leave a comment

Tucsonan Activists —  Image by kenne

These are amazing: each
Joining a neighbor, as though speech
Were a still performance.
Arranging by chance

To meet as far this morning
From the world as agreeing
With it, you and I
Are suddenly what the trees try

To tell us we are:
That their merely being there
Means something; that soon
We may touch, love, explain.

And glad not to have invented
Such comeliness, we are surrounded:
A silence already filled with noises,
A canvas on which emerges

A chorus of smiles, a winter morning.
Placed in a puzzling light, and moving,
Our days put on such reticence
These accents seem their own defense.

What You See Is Not Always What You Get   Leave a comment

Saguaros In Sabino Canyon — Image by kenne

The blackness

of the sky,

caused by

changing

blue to black

in Photoshop

removing all color

changing the

vibrations

captured by your

optical nerve —

what you see

is not always

what you get.

4th Avenue Street Fair, Tucson, Arizona — Image by kenne

No chance of rain here

walking down the avenue

from booth to booth

dodging people not looking

bands playing on a nearby stage

stopping for a beer and a snack

only to photograph people eating.

Eyes tell the story

runners finishing the run

near the finish line.
