LOST CITY OF THE INCAS
THIS IS MACHU PICCHU IN PERU
IT WAS UNKNOWN TO THE WORLD UNTIL 1917
IT IS LIKE AN ISLAND IN THE SKY.
WHAT MYSTERIES ARE HIDDEN THERE?
I WOULD LIKE TO DISCOVER THEM.
BUT WHERE WOULD I PARK MY CAR?

SWINGING GATES
THIS AN EXHIBIT BY THE ARTIST CHRISTO
I AM NOT SURE WHAT IT MEANS
THE COLOR REMINDS ME OF AUTUMN
I WOULD LIKE TO WALK UNDER THESE GATES
I DON’T KNOW WHY
QUOTE OF THE DAY
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
-Walt Emerson
LIGHTNING BUG SHOWER
I STILL ENJOY CHASING LIGHTNING BUGS
THEY ARE EASY TO CATCH
WINKING AND GLOWING IN MY HAND
A SHOWER OF LIGHT AT DUSK
QUIETLY USHERING IN THE NIGHT

TEXT ME NOT
I DON’T TEXT MUCH
I WANT TO HEAR LAUGHTER
I WANT TO HEAR SADNESS
I WANT TO HEAR LOVE
LIKE A CHILD, I SLEEP BETTER
WHEN I HEAR THE MURMUR OF VOICES IN THE BACKROUND
FLAMINGO'S AS ART
AT FIRST I WASN’T SURE THIS WAS REALLY A PHOTO.
IT HAS THE FEEL OF A PAINTING.
WHY DO FLAMINGO’S EXIST?
I THINK TO EXHIBIT BEAUTY.
THEY ARE TRUELY A WORK OF ART.
SO IS THIS PHOTOGRAPH.
QUOTE OF THE DAY
In dreams and in love there are no impossibilities -Janos Arnay
ITS PLANE AS DAY
I FIND THIS HILARIOUS, YET, DISTURBING
I WOULD NOT SLEEP ON THIS PLANE
A STRONG WIND MIGHT SEND IT INTO FLIGHT
I WONDER IF I HAVE TO REMOVE MY SHOES TO ENTER

SILENCE PLEASE
THIS PHOTO GIVES ME SUCH PEACEFUL THOUGHTS
I DO NOT SPEND ENOUGH TIME IN THE QUIET OF NATURE
I COULD SPEND HOURS SITTING BY THIS LAKE
RELAXED AND ENERGIZED AT THE SAME TIME
“PEACE LIKE A RIVER, RAN THROUGH THE CITY,
WE SAT STARRY-EYED, OH WE WERE SATISFIED”
-PAUL SIMON

ALBUM COVER ART
SINCE THE ADVENT OF CD’S
AN ART FORM HAS BEEN DIMINISHED
THE MOODY BLUES MADE INTERESTING MUSIC
BUT THEIR ALBUM COVERS WERE JUST AS INTERESTING
I WONDER IF THEY EVER FOUND THAT LOST CHORD

TOOTHPICK ART
I WOULD NOT HAVE THE PATIENCE TO DO THIS
WHAT IF YOU GOT ALMOST DONE
AND SOMETHING FELL ON IT
I AM IMPRESSED BY THIS ARTISTS PERSISTENCE
ALTHOUGH I THINK IF HE WAS AT MY HOUSE
FOR A SUMMER BARBEQUE OF RIBS
HIS TOOTHPICKS WOULD COME IN HANDY
STONE FACE
THIS FASCINATES ME
THIS SCARES ME
IT HAS HAUNTED MY DREAMS
SINCE FIRST I SAW IT
ART CAN BE SO SIMPLE
YET, STIR SUCH COMPLICATED EMOTIONS

TIP OF THE ICEBERG
THE SUBMERGED ICEBERG INTRIGUES ME
IT LOOKS LIKE A GIANT JELLYFISH
WAITING TO STING THE UNSUSPECTING VICTIM
THE TITANIC HAD NO CHANCE
AGAINST SUCH A PREDATOR

QUOTE OF THE DAY
Love has no desire but to fulfill itself. To melt and be like a running brook that sings its melody to the night. To wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving. ~Kahlil Gibran
BIRDS OF A FEATHER
THIS MANY BIRDS CONGREGATING MAKES ME NERVOUS
REMINDS ME OF THE MOVIE “THE BIRDS”
THEY SEEM TO BE COMMUNICATING
IT COULD BE INSTINCT
EVEN SO, I PLAN TO KEEP AN EYE ON THEM.
OPTICAL ILLUSION
by findstuff22
SOME SEE AN OLD MAN AND AN OLD WOMAN.
GIVING EACH OTHER COMFORT
SOME SEE A TOCANDO SU GUITARRA, A GUITAR PLAYER
SINGING TO HIS GIRLFRIEND
I SEE A WOMAN IN THE OLD MANS’ EAR
WHO IS SHE?
I WOULD LIKE TO ASK HER
COME FLY WITH ME
from jurvetson
HAWK IN FLIGHT AGAINST THE SKY
ITS AS IF IT’S FIRST SET OF WINGS
SUPPORT THE WINGS IT HAS NOW
I WOULD LIKE TO FLY LIKE THAT
BUT EVEN HAWKS
MUST RETURN TO EARTH
THE EYES HAVE IT
BY EMIL CENZATO
THIS MASK IS ART.
THE PHOTOGRAPH IS ART.
I AM MORE INTERESTED IN HER EYES.
SHE LOOKS DISTANT TO ME.
MAYBE SHE IS PLAYING THE PART
I THINK SHE IS LOST AND LONELY.
