Dependable, Sulphur Peak
faces each day
dressing for the season.

Caged from cattle,
who were her people
pioneering in the foothills?

 

 

WPC – Threshold (2)

From the embrace of shade,
shelter from the elements,
we watch the world.

Dark portal reserved for spring
without an address
or need for a door.

 

 

WPC – Signs of Street Life Non-sense

IMG_2084

Not a good sign for us that our asphalt connection to the outside world has received more attention during this past year with more non-sense emanating from town, reflective reminders, spaced every tenth of a mile, that nothing ever stays the same.

Shortly thereafter, Dry Creek Road got its first double-yellow line for its initial eight miles to where the pavement becomes too narrow to accommodate a vehicle either side of it, false hope for tourists taking the backway to Sequoia-Kings Canyon National Park towing fifth-wheels with no place to turn around. The most recent signage also suggests sharing the road with bicyclists. Tricky business when the latest fine for crossing over the double-yellow line was $350.

Then a white fog line painted on and off the dirt. Thank you Tulare County government, dollars well spent!

WPC – Reflections of Rock (3)

Rocks and trees remember
days between rains rising
to see how they looked

to an upside-down world,
watch hawks in the heavens
gliding beneath them.
