It all begins with a twinge of desire Moves to the stirring of soul Set-off by a spark, the burning flame and fire Eventual magnitude, an unquenchable coal With one foot on the trail One foot in the clouds I plant my sticks in the soil Raise my lens to the sky Vision borrowed from another space Lines, patterns, relationships though real Working the shot, tracing the frame - I pace Striving to come back to that pre-visualized feel With one foot on the trail One foot in the clouds I plant my sticks in the soil Raise my lens to the sky (C) James Farley 2017 05-NOV-2017 #photography #poetry #previsualization #hiking #clouds #sky #creativewriting #inspiration #irishpoet
