Thumbs Up To the Journey

Thumbs Up To The Journey At the footbridge as it bridges past from present future and perspectives your feet might be-come and may be-go confused be-fuddled as can your mind before the shadows rainbows feathered fancy pastel tunes and blues-bound colours can memories anticipation taking-stock ooze pots and lots of lived experience re-scribed re-told rewound projected narrated from emotive thoughts stand still At the bridge as it cradles the canyon with ladles and measures of the moment where it spans what once was what you enrich in here and now not there and then the sweeping meadows fields of harvest schisms unions paradigms evaluations can treasures scary scars letting-go liberate scents and stents of living fragrance perceived untold configured touched upon stocked up condensed reflected wait The past is yet to come and not withstanding what bridge which side what size and whence long gone remembrance spins and spans and slows and speeds the motion the sunrise dusk and dawning tapestry mosaic photographic lens sensations can truth reality attitudes and imperfections find soul and solace shared solitude re-modelled shaped anew confronted soothed harmonised accentuated rise The future has arrived and has been long projected and the past is living on where they settle and sizzle on in ember’s glory and ashes to ashes and Phoenix in flight when horizons and boxes un-boxed wriggling worms preceding grave graves can joy pleasure senses and sexes passion peace human works of art in progress accepted invited challenged unchallenged channelled welcomed gratitude prevail At the foot-bridge at the mind-bridge where it bridges cradles sweeps your meaning brushes and jungles juggles and wonders which hand’s intuition which path to follow lie the answers to the questions asked lie the questions known and not yet explored 24th July 2016
