Caught Up In The Undertow

Caught up in the undertow
Sound muffled by crashing waves
Sand rolling on top of each other
Spinning out of control limitlessly

Gravity lifting up and down
Slowing it down with a weightless volume
Drifting them further apart
Shifting views set your fall deeper and deeper

Disguised in your own head
A world of suffocation
Facing your darkest days discovering your best portrait
Caught up in the undertow

Dimensions of leaping faiths breaking the cracks
A passing sunrise clears through the fog
Disappearing for clarity above the horizon
Erasing past mistakes
Wandering passed the dark clouds
Fate will overcome

Description: An original poem I wrote about a person feeling the world of anxiety on their shoulders. Facing the problems that persists constantly, but knowing that those issues will soon give way allowing a new day to start over and move on. A lot people fight anxiety everyday and it is a real issue. This is for them.

I shot this on my trip to Shenandoah National Park in April of 2016 on the Whiteoak Canyon Trail. This is the second waterfall of the lower falls. I wanted to try something different with my editing, and combine colors with layering techniques to achieve this effect! Hope everyone has a great day and Easter! ☺️❤️☺️ Thank you so much for taking the time to visit my page. It means a lot. 🙏

Ridin' In An Old Rusty Pontiac

Ridin' in an old rusty Pontiac
Highways taking me where I'd wanna go
Overhead lights passin' beams of shadows
Following my tracks with steps gone
Memories of old songs playing endlessly
From a cassette deck of analog simplicity
.
Those times were so simple
Falling deeper without distraction
Riding waves to parachute me through
I wanna know the direction
.
My eyes are closed on lifetime's forgotten words
There's a bottle sittin' on the dresser
Telling me everything will be alright
Pouring me a glass of Kentucky bourbon
This is for you my friend
.
Nowhere to go but home
Days of thinking alone where I'd dream
.
Those times were so simple
Falling deeper without distraction
Riding waves to parachute me through
I wanna know the direction

Climbing Up The Great Smoky Mountains

Every time I entered this park during my trip, I felt humbled and very spiritual. A place where the Indian Americans of the Cherokee tribe called this place Little Blue Smoke. @greatsmokynps The experience of making the drive all the way to the top was unforgettable. Air thinning, Helga (the rental car) was chugging, but without a doubt, made it. Arriving to the top of the Blue Ridge @blueridgenps you could get a 360 degree view, the fog swooshed in, but I quickly grabbed my camera to take some shots. Before taking the short, but steep hike to the observation deck. Climbing to the top wasn't so hard, but as the elevation rosed, sipping air felt like I had to enjoy a thirty year old fine scotch with a cigar. Alas, it did make it a little harder to catch a breath. One leg in front of the other, the sound was dimmed by the second, as a sign that something was going to happen soon. After reaching the highest point in the smokies at 6,643 ft. (2.02km) and 2nd highest east of the Mississippi River, then was caught in a full fledged storm cloud, making the climb down wearing my trustee blue poncho to the visiter center I needed a deserved break before heading back to Helga.
If you plan on visiting the smokies, take the ride all the way up to experience the drive with an endless amounts of overlooks for photo ops, and moments to reflect and taking it all in so you'll never forget that this land is sacred.
