Standing on the Cliff

October 5, 2015 by Dale Leave a Comment

Standing on a Cliff a boundary against oblivion blue pulls me away from the gold of your heart. Standing on a Ledge time opens like earthquake a chasm to infinity seconds away from your heart.

In the Twinkle of the Tongue

December 13, 2014 by Dale 3 Comments

Twinkle Splash of Light

In the twinkle of the splash Lighted rings hold us tight A tongue erupts from the gash Imprints our eye with silver light And as the pebble falls below Heaven paints the liquid fabric Wrap my dreams in sunshine glow Wisps of graphic that flit like magic. All text and images © Dale Schierbeck See…

Dreamy

October 10, 2014 by Dale 4 Comments

Dreamy

To be caught in a dream is to let go of the world that is and be transported to a world that might be. It is a place where the imagination plays with indistinct forms, thoughts, hopes and desires …. To capture it in a photograph, might be to capture the dream of the subject’s or…
