Electric Waves
This is definitely one of my favorite shots. I was lucky, too, as the conditions were perfect to reveal this mesmerizing dance of water and light.

The Mind is a Mirror
Reality whirls with images
Dancing shadows of sound and color
Shaping the illusion of separations
Like shattered glass
Carving out concepts
Flung upon the mirror’s surface
Reflecting back on the self
Veiling its true nature

Brief
For a profoundly brief moment
I escape the void
Flinging myself off timeless rocks
Arcing through the air
Water without restraint
A tumultuous trip
For such a profoundly brief moment
Before I fall back into oblivion
Memories that define my consciousness, my very being
Absorbed into the river
That flows without end

Wrinkles in the Mirror
He loved
Only once
With kisses plentiful
Planted along lover’s cheek
He fell
Only once
With ripples abundant
Perishing along the shoreline
He cradled
Every hour
With moments infinite
Wrinkles rolling along this cold, mirrored surface
