Just an “anxious to get out there” pretty picture, but it’ll be another 3 months or so. Or, you can see it as 2-meter whitecaps.

There’s mist cross those mountains
of ole lady Pitt,
she draws back the thin veil
and glimmers mud spit,
where two falcons on keel
and blue waterman’s ride,
float mysterious airs
before what comes on next tide.

That is a beautiful piece of poetry. I feel privileged that it is based on my picture.
Thank you. It is an exceptionally fine image, and much more worthy than my machinations in meter. Kind of near a speechless moment, really, where you pull away the viewfinder from eye, post-click, hoping you’ve captured one-tenth the meditative balm that the eye-to-brain-to-soul connection is presently providing. Like many of these wonderful images shared here. Perhaps the pinnacle in our reason to push ourselves with paddle to these (stealing from Van the Man here) haunts of ancient peace.

Made the trek to Silver River yesterday. Always a beautiful paddle - saw lots of alligators, a manatee and the troupe of feral rhesus macaques that the area is famous for. Oh and one of the largest springs in the state!

I’ve been right there a couple of times in a kayak. Wish I were there now.

Up the Jervis,
sky kisses water glassine,
where hazy hillsides hover,
to reflect in marine,
paddle blades from catch,
draw up the droplet curl,
which wakes a pendant wave,
by aerated unfurl,
Princess Louisa awaits,
her hush in pristine lochs,
till water has its say,
and falls in chatterbox.

I hover water,
like the mist,
an inclination,
I’ll cross as wisp.
That is simply beautiful. You have such a talent. Your poems with peoples pretty pictures would make a lovely book. I would buy one.
