10,000 lakes


Yell Sound, Shetland, 2014, R.A.D. Stainforth


time flew
though
just for a few of us

the rest stayed
stuck between rocks
& sand art ultimatums

beautiful sunsets being the reason

oh how we hastened
That Grand Goodbye, but...
oh how we lingered to go

2014-Rene

    I feel that feet dragging trying to gather the last glimpse in the lens.
