Sunday Scribblings offers the prompt: I'd like to hear your take on being disconnected.
Disconnection
skip and thump
the creep of time
protective shield
altered in a blink
that mantle drapes
too soon on her
no bright markers
lead the way
the path is clean
the map is gone like
footprints scrubbed
from sand by tides
Orchid Bayou is an original watercolor.

such a sad piece but written so beautifully. xo
this has a very soulful and poignant sound as i read it, but it has a ring of beauty as well - very nice post!!!
Wow, what a beautiful watercolor! Wish I could enlarge it.
I can feel the disconnection in this. Excellently done.
finding one's way can be difficult at times. you've captured the disconnect well. love the watercolor. have a nice day.
very nice... it seeems to be about age to me, and a disconnection from self... but perhaps im barking up the wrong tree...
seems to be about your mom dying younger than you are now... I have the same thing with my dad... he died when he was 54 and I am now 55 - it's odd, but I'm sure more with your same sex parent - hope you're not feeling mortal!!
gorgeous words,, and that water color or whatever it is is amazing again... how do you get them so 3 d like????
Very poignant. You have done a good job capturing the feeling of disconnection.
Absolutely wonderful, Sue! Indeed impermanence keeps things in a forward flow.
Time does have a way of creeping, and then something comes along and in an instant life is changed. Forever. And then just like that life's gone without a trace.
I love this and what it says about time, change, and the way our path isn't always clear. Very well done!
I thoroughly enjoy your unique way with words: footprints scrubbed
from sand by tides!
beautifuly done
Super, super. I like it
By just your words, you always hit me with resounding imagery! This sounds like lamentation of the onset of Alzheimer's. A memory scrubbed clean of sentiment and expectation. Beautiful in it's sadness.
That last stanza was awesome. Like we were never here.
Life is fleeting. Beautiful.
Wow..love the words and this piece of art is just beautiful..what rich colors-
Great art!! Lovely!
And nice poem
Definitely disconnected yet also... there's some yearning in there. To connect, perhaps?
