A Few Rainy Steps

Pic by Gemma Wiseman ~ We have not had rain on my Mornington Peninsula since early December 2008.
So this morning, these rain laden steps on my verandah in the Dromana Hills were a glorious sight to see.

Steps to rainy worlds
Wonderful water aura
Mirrors of freshness

Rise or Fall

A stair is a fabricated
Rise or fall into
A new level of
Space
~
Many stairs are like a
Subconscious
Temptation to
Step
Down or
Up into
A new frontier ~
To explore
A sense of wonder
A sense of curiosity
~
But sometimes
There are stairs
Masquerading as
Possibilities ~
A false
Start
A disappointing
Cue ~
Those stairs which may once have led
Somewhere
But now
Stop
Halfway
~
Maybe
A broken landscape
~
Maybe
An aloof treasure
A little out of reach

Rumours say that the new owner may have it operating again this summer.
Rumours said the same thing last summer.

Stairways
Graded, paced steppings
Multiple tiers of vision
Levels of spaces
