golden light
ignites rolling waters
flavors the atmosphere
with texture
filling the air
thoughts
and yearnings
with an ancient knowing
that is deep as deep can be
golden light can permeate
and flow
to fill
the spine of life
awakening
a soothing exhilarating fire
the sleeping goddess
who undulates within living waters
she
kindles the heart of life
~

Tammie, I so love the poetry and the fishes blend with the rocks. Nice capture!
ReplyDelete:) (no point in adding words ... and yet I just did!)
ReplyDeleteOhh that looks so nice and cool, I just want to jump in. Of course, that would ruin your picture so I will restrain myself ;)
ReplyDeleteI love sunlit waters! Wonderful<3

ReplyDeleteThe water is so clear! We always seem to be on the look out for fish, but rarely get to see them so clearly!
ReplyDeleteThese fish should be happy that they have such a beautiful & clean place to live. So many of our waterways are so polluted. Lovely photograph:)
ReplyDeleteThe golden rocks below the water give such a great look and feel to the picture. Wonderful!
ReplyDeleteSurreal...lovely.
ReplyDeleteBoth are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBlessings and smiles
The spine of life is a marvelous image. Makes me think of the rivers near here.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful.
How nifty that you went from this otherworldly gold to kundalini. Another exquisite photograph, MizLee.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot and a lovely poem.
ReplyDeleteSo much depth to your photo and writing.
ReplyDeleteYou have captured so beautifully so many senses in this post for me. Gazing at your photo I feel the cool on my feet as I delight in the sunlit waters, stones underfoot feeling movement of water from fins swiftly swimming by...
Beautifully written! Very stirring poetry.
ReplyDeleteThe image is beautiful as well.
"golden light ignites rolling waters..."
ReplyDeleteyou capture me right there with anticipation....
"...the sleeping goddess who undulates within living waters, she kindles the heart of life"...

Amazing photo and "awakenting, exhilarating" words... Again Thank you. Love and Light, Nina P.
Wow...that's an interesting picture and you are so poetic! :)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful words and pictures. Love the line about the sleeping goddess.
ReplyDeleteHellow Tammie:
ReplyDeleteI saw the bear at the Miami Zoo. It wasn't a very good day for taking animal pictures because it was so hot. All the animals were either not out at all or resting under the shade. I felt fortunate that I saw this bear up and walking.
How many different ways can I possibly say that your photography and poetry are absolutely stunning? I don't know, but I do have a hefty vocabulary :)
ReplyDeleteTalk about bathing in gold. :)
I love the words and the photo. Love the shimmering golden water.
ReplyDeleteThe colours are amazing. I have to ask: what are they?
ReplyDeleteAh, thank you all so much for your visits and comments and appreciation. You touch my heart.
ReplyDeleteCiel,
I believe they are large Whitefish, at least that is what I was told. I wonder if my town was named after them. Most likely, eh! Seems I better do some research.
With warmth,
Tammie
Lovely words and image. As precious as pure gold. ;-)
ReplyDeleteSo nice - the picture, the words, the sentiments - all of it!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful photograph...it looks like the fish are swimming through liquid gold! Your blog is a lovely retreat of beautiful poetry and visual treats.
ReplyDeletewow, great photo,... took me a bit to finally see the fish. Always love your photos and poetry, great match-up!
ReplyDeleteGolden lights in water...mesmerizing.
ReplyDeleteThis might be one of my favorite poems of yours. I love the echoing intimacy of "kindle," "undulate," the "spine of life," "the heart of life," -- all that backed by that fabulous golden light. Just beautiful!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful Photo beautiful poetry...you are gifted!
