These things ... these joyous things

These Things ... These Joyous Things

elegant, long-needled, sunlit Jeffrey Pines,

clinging rabbit brush draping shadows

across the sparkled and crevassed granite rock,

Walker River riffling through the canyon,

Shingle Mill day use area inviting 

passing travelers to stop, rest, 

admire these joyous things...

these joyous things,

waiting for you,

hoping you see them,

wanting your heart to open,

feel the connection,

feel the eternity 

flowing between you.

9/12/2021 driving Highway 395 through Walker Canyon, stopping to do my gratitude journal in one of my favorite places.

I miss the Eastern Sierra.
