letters

take me to those once upon a times where wisteria strolls and hand written love was the way I captured this image while driving through the small town of Rocky Mount, Virginia. This quaint little town instantly drew me in with its simplistic fare and images like this truly commemorate the nostalgia of its streetsContinue reading “letters”

mist

as the mist of midnight’s steps cradles the morning caress, i awaken too, with a lust for you I captured this image in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains in Fairy Stone State Park. I giggled at first sight of the morning’s mist in its stream along the lake at the irony of theContinue reading “mist”

salt: a haiku

trimming the distance salt water blankets bare thoughts waves caress slowly I captured this image along the shore of Hatteras Island in the Outer Banks of North Carolina as a storm was approaching.

The laughter commenced as thankfully I didn’t get hurt and a rest along the mossy stonesContinue reading “ivory: a haiku”

rapture: a haiku

the blackbird’s rapture in the slick draw of midnight a stance of freedom I took this image while sitting on my deck in the backyard. I love to travel and adventure to new places especially with my camera in tow but more often than not, I become inspired by the views my own backyard offersContinue reading “rapture: a haiku”

virtue: a haiku

silence, a virtue wading through canopies wild dresses me at dawn I captured this image within the gardens of Elizabethan Gardens on Roanoke Island in North Carolina. The statue, one created by artist Maria Louisa Lander, is that of Virginia Dare, the first English child born in the New World. Her rendition is that ofContinue reading “virtue: a haiku”

train rides

hitchhiking to these, my forgotten spaces thumbs up to the clouds waiting for the train to catch that wind the bell tolls silently so to those who listen to those with no fear of letting go i cradle my bag, my makeshift courage kit to wander now needlessly to where the leaves blow, where theyContinue reading “train rides”
