AGAINST THE ELEMENTS

This old tree once shaded a desert island.  But that was long ago.  Now, against the elements, its bleached and weatherworn branches reach up into a tropical summer sky.

Down Island Dawn                                            Backwater Twilight

If these old pilings could speak,                                           A local fishing boat has anchored for the night

what stories they could tell of                                               in a forgotten down island bay.

heartache and joy,                                                                The quiet sound of the lapping waves

of storms and calm,                                                              tells of a peaceful night for all aboard.

and endless sunrises like this one.
