I love how the Abbey Wakes up in the morrow...


Dunfermline Abbey, Scotland

I love how the Abbey
Wakes up in the morrow,
In a mist of hope,
Rid of yesterday’s sorrow.

I love how the sun
pats the gravestones on the back
Sending to the ground their shadows.

I love how old Dunfermline Town
Welcomes me back, each time
With cuddles, chatter and laughs,
To celebrate that better than today,
There must always be a tomorrow.

I saw a leaf From a tree, Fall...


photo & poem © Jesús Montero

I saw a leaf
From a tree, Fall,
Like centuries
Shed years,
Months 
And days.

I saw a leaf
From a tree, Fall,
Like the tides 
Of the Moon,
Cycling
Without rest.

I saw a leaf
From a tree, Fall,
Like the lines
Of this verse
Come
Off the page.

Flamingos in the marshlands...


photo & poem © Jesús Montero

Flamingos in the marshlands,
Sandpipers in the low tides.
Sipping through the sea-salt.
Feeding on the mud.

Two sides of mother nature.
Pockets of paradise.
