Mirage
Many an evening
many a horizon
tempts with turquoise tints
Many an evening
many a horizon
tempts with turquoise tints
of misty waterfalls, teal seas,
coconut palms, dipping, swaying,
gentle waves beneath gossamer clouds,
coconut palms, dipping, swaying,
gentle waves beneath gossamer clouds,
shapeshifting above dirt tire tracks,
weary shoulders, bare feet
toward a mirage, ever trudging.

love, love LOVE! your use of gossamer and your take on this pic!
Though we try, we never quite reach that mirage. I'm liking the idea of finding something better than and above the "dirt tire tracks."
Beautiful..we head toward the mirage, never quite arriving, but still have the hope.
This is lovely...I could get lost in that second stanza...sigh...so nice.
Such a beautiful picture and your words offer us another glimpse of the view ahead.
Well done!
It's a sad life! They continue to vie for the good but it's a mirage that they don't even get. Great take Marge!

This is beautiful, Margaret. You brought that picture to life. Hey, I will still be around in various places in the blogosphere....you can always find me if you wish. Smiles.
This is SO beautiful:
"tempts with turquoise tints
of misty waterfalls, teal seas,
coconut palms, dipping, swaying,
gentle waves beneath gossamer clouds"...
such a fantastic juxtaposition with the word "trudging." There is always, always hope.
A really beautiful image Margaret, and as always, your words are wonderful.
I know I would keep my weary shoulders and bare feet moving forward in hopes of reaching that mirage!
Many, many --> shapeshifting
ever trudging.
Gosh. Got to have a dream.
Wow that road to infinity, stairway to heaven.... You did it so well, thanks Margaret ...
Yes, it's mostly a lonely and narrow road resolutely trodden that takes us where we should be going.

nice...makes for a lovely bit of imagery...so at least the view is nice as we ever trudge on...
A mirage! What a wonderful idea. The artist in you has picked upon the palette of colours too. Well done.
i think it's a tough life.. yet your middle stanza makes it magical as well
This is just lovely, Margaret. Sometimes it's those turquoise and teal "mirages" that carry us through the harsher realities we of life. And keep us moving forward.
Love the colors you include here...nice...
What an incredible photo from Musin Yohan...a new photographer for me.
