In the waning days of the Summer season, a heron waits.
A message will soon arrive, calling them to take a journey.
An adventure far beyond the horizon, and a new life.
Waiting for the Message

Shallow Reveal
On a shallow lake of dwindling waters, much will be revealed.
For those in the midst of change, longing for the past will cloud the mind.
What revelations appear in the new world where you find yourself?
Treasure Present
Shades of blue and grey, both fluid and statue-still on a bright day.
Spirit taking a brief respite from searching for the one treasure.
A treasure found not past nor future, but in the present moment.
Searching for Truth
Searching murky depths on this brightest of Autumn days.
Knowing not what may be found, if anything at all.
Sensing beneath the surface for Truth to be revealed.
Day Dreams
Quietly contemplating the happenings of the fading day.
Disturbed by sights and sounds, all the while sleeping in fits and starts.
Night is coming soon and the world you dream of will come alive.
Calling Out
Drifting across the cool morning waters calling out to the dawn.
A new day has begun and the ghosts of yesterday fade away.
What memories await creation only to be forgotten?
Great Blue Treetop
Resting quietly atop slender green needles in the sky.
Waiting patiently for the warmth of the rising Sun at dawn.
Colours are revealed from once-darkened silhouettes, now alive.
Preening Perch
Perched on high for a safe respite from the cares of the world below.
Put things on pause for awhile to reflect and look after the self.
Perhaps the more things change, the more they stay the same is the real Truth.
Opposite Shore
Early morning Sunshine waking the world from last night’s slumber.
Admiring beings glide effortlessly to shores beyond.
How does one cross from the shore where one stands to the other shore?
Searching Beyond
Searching for answers beneath reflections, be not distracted.
Beyond the surface where meaning dwells, waiting discovery.
What new lessons will you find at the end of today’s journey?
