“Poker Lineage Smith” 07 08 2010

~

He fought for beauty in the world

Against false pretense

~

The written word in broken cursive

His best defense

~

Scribbled down on traveled streets

Smiles providing comfort

~

Glances a second to meaningful meets

~

Lights and sound from rumbling tires

Hearts of stone or burning fires?

~

Drives the wheel with knees

His words flowed with ease

Where should one say please?

~

He opens a door of chaotic solitude

Is he home?

About Me

My photo
Welcome to my Blogs. My name is Thomas Murphy and I love the forest and wildlife areas of Wisconsin and would like to share my thoughts and the pictures I have taken of the natural areas of Wisconsin. Come share in my collection of what I feel to some of the finest scenes and images of the forests, lakes, rivers and marshes that Wisconsin has to offer. I like to go to pristine and secluded areas where nature resides quietly and I feel the resulting “lost” images are profoundly unique. I am usually “in the moment” when I take these pictures. When I say in the moment I mean a sense of excitement often precedes what my eye captures through the camera. I never stage these shots but seem to be in the right place and time when I shoot them. And when I transfer them from my camera and view them on my computer screen I realize a sense of surrealism that resonates with me yet again to the time they were taken and exemplify the beauty of nature. Please peruse my sites and experience the beauty of being there as I did. WWW.ThomasMurphy.lifepics.com
