What Crosses My Mind

  • Watching The Sunrise

    Simple really. Nothing complicated about watching its spectacular image rising over the horizon. Makes you wonder for a moment, just a thought, how small we really are, and how magical is the sunlight on a summer’s day. Watching the stars overnight and falling asleep in the sky, a peek of morning sunshine, lights up the…

  • Morning Sunlight

    If we allow ourselves a moment to engage in the beauty of morning, sunlight can radiate our mind and body. The leaves are turning watching the autumn descend upon our summer dreams. We will cycle toward the arctic, winter winds. Yet, stand in the sunlight for a moment, we might.

  • Turning Point

    When presence takes hold the past grows old. We have to allow ourselves to put the odds on shelves Life holds a sunny sky, so when that is the why let everything go, just like being in the know. There is a crucible stands direct make it questionable and indirect. © Thom Amundsen 10/2021

  • Eyes Open

    Glance outside, slatted reminder Cloud cover inside rays of sunlight Awakening to keen choice occasion Mindless storms set aside today We are on rhythm designed a hunter Those whose early rise a sorrow might Upon now themselves haunting derision Having practiced in life what we may For truth will shine in a forever soul Feel…

  • Summer Dreams

    Wish for a chance to capture such beauty As lights our horizon, an accentuate calm. Satisfy urgency, sweet like the palm Solace upon heart sought serenity.   Silent eyes seeking accessible paths A walk is meditation in such air Having found freedom, surreal is where Let go of resentments, wild wanton wrath.   A forest,…
