ABANDONED

abandoned in the hour

abandoned in the crowd

abandoned in the chaos

abandoned in the moment

lying forgotten tossed aside without a hope

ravaged by time and inconsiderate misuse

torn apart by unwelcome souls of fate

the rising comes with no realization

up through the pain and out of the ashes

reborn and renewed, lifted up like never before

seen with eyes of love held in gentle hands

a beating heart within the embrace

chosen and wanted never abandoned

Into the Color...

“What lies beyond, into the color?”

Promises to Keep

The Face?

During an evening walk with my daughter I was taking pictures of the sunset in a forest in Western Washington.  Upon returning home and editing the pictures for uploading I noticed something peculiar.  The sun appears to be perched on the top of the wooden stump but just to the lower left of the sun there appears to be a face peering out from in the leaves of the trees? 

The first picture is the original with no editing except for a drop shadow border.  

This picture below highlights the area where the face seems to appear with the rest of the surrounding area blurred out.

  What do you think?  Was something staring at us from the forest?
