Thursday, we might have some rain; that would be a treat again. Need some moisture on the road; too much and it will erode. You don’t have to drive real far before dust gets on the car. Wife goes to the car wash soon. Bad for me; for them a boon. Why a wash is such a bust: ere she’s home, car’s veiled in...

Premium Member The Waves of Everything Pretty
Air aided in gravel’s travel Its ricocheting rhythm Rhythming like the crunch Of an ocean The steps of someone The left and right side Sway as incongruent tides Whatever winds wind up Within an earshot, it becomes Tapped in our orbit Wonders of the world all around Wondering what it will be like To be a cherished kind of sound...

Down the gravel road from the tiny mountain town
a cozy cabin slumbers on the mountain side, hidden within a thicket of wheatgrass swaying in the brisk summer breeze, full of fresh fragrances of pine and spruce Behind the cabin, a lanky tree dangles a long rugged rope with a ragged sack seat stuffed with horse hair that swings higher than a mountain’s peak Down the hill rests a mossy...

Fed Up With Her Marriage
Their marriage has to be dissolved, Nothing again to be resolved, Twelve good years and problems unsolved, Their priest had her of guilt absolved, Mark who had thrice their problem solved, Three is Lord God's Holy Number, No case against her being sombre, She'll stay right through the Judge's Gavel, And then to Great Britain travel... Joan: The Fed up with...

The Gem Gravel
yes i don't know what pain hurts more when the clouds themselves are cloudy and the storm that triumphs has the arrogance of insolence when doubts assailed me it was afternoon I smiled happy with the majesty of my arrogance there were no gaps in my thoughts every lamp in the home shone what it knew outside the fabric of the world grew soft my way...

Premium Member King Salmon
Fiercely flipping his tiller tail The king’s snout turns to point the way To lead kin from a briny bay Up a rustic roiling river Of flowing falls, rough rocks, and banks Lined with greeting eagles and bears Set to embrace with beaks and jaws. Traveling on a fasting diet The royal salmon swims upstream Seeking passage between the hills To reach rippling crystalline...

Premium Member Message From a Piece of Gravel
Death will come at you for certain like a piece of gravel spit from a truck. After it strikes your windshield soul it leaves in a mocking puff then a spiderweb of grief spreads across the view never to leave there's no dodging it here it comes a piece of gravel with your name on it....

Gravel
The driveway’s made of gravel, Preventing slips and skids, But really, more important, It’s a magnet for the kids. They pluck the rocks and toss them, The pebbles raining down, Then line them up, creating Highways in a mini-town. They scoop them up and let them Slowly trickle through their hands And watching them, I realize What each Nana understands – The simplest items can provide Imagination’s...

accident oil spill dead fish wash up on seashore kids build sandcastles 5/29/2018 We often say that no two oil spills are alike, but one thing spills have in common is that cleaning oil off of shorelines is a messy business.
