Journey to light

From darkness bound by wind and rain, tempest of reality and reason, a brave foot takes the first step. Amid howling Banshees and frantic leaves with my head bowed and eyes nearly closed I pushed against the pedals. Dark Demons jump from deep shadow to the next pit of black as headlights burn away the night.

From windy corners spirals of crisping copper leaves take flight in the gusting air, spiders hang onto their trampoline webs and birds stay motionless in the air flapping angel wings to no avail. In such turmoil beauty springs, the flashing heartbeat lights of other cyclists drum out the rhythm of life. To and fro we go, from joy to heartache, from shadow to light on the journey to life and death.

So, here....amongst the swirling leaves and sparkling lights, the darkness and sunshine, mapped out in the lines and scars that I bare, in each little memory and tear there are the track ways of life. Stare into the darkness for long enough and you will see light, the empty spaces have the ghosts of us all floating in them, here........so much beauty.

A wild morning that made my heart race and mind dance for joy!

Hope you all have a good day!
