Dirt Road Journey's

It is good to have an end to journey toward; but it is the journey that matters, in the end. ~Ursula K. Le Guin

Ripples

The moon creates
a wavering snake-like
glow
on the ripples of the water
on the lake.
The stars twinkle
above my head.

Sitting here on the
disintegrating cinder
block retaining wall,
I listen to the night creatures
and I

Thank God for the simple
things that comfort me
in the night.
I wonder who else is looking?

Another very nice one!!!!

Friends are looking, by the way, from all over.

Isn' it nice to think about silence and loneliness... and then, in this quiet and tender night, you think about all these people you know that can be asleep, working, lazying... but all of them have that special place in their mind, or / and heart, where you stand?
... a nice way to enjoy a quiet time at night.
