Wondering, a beginning or an end

dawn

The blue river is gray at morning and evening.
There is twilight at dawn and dusk.
I lie in the dark
wondering if this quiet in me now
is a beginning or an end.

  1. Stunning photograph, it is neither the beginning nor end..it is a meeting of two strong friends..the rock and waves , they meet and take , carve out a niche..at dawn and dusk..slowly the hard rock..gives itself to the soft waves lapping at its feet…
