    Serpent From the Sea

    From the deepest darkness places in the sea the serpent hides waiting for its prey to come to the water edge.  The beauty of sunsets and sunrises always  entice  unaware souls to come for a closer look..

    As the sun light sinks over the horizon creating a beauty that will draw many,

    the serpent creeps out of the waters depths.

    P4230029 

    This hideous creature  lurks the shores looking for weak souls to devour. 

    P4230034

    While one  stands unsuspecting gazing at the beauty of the sunrise

    the serpent crawls closer.

     P4230058

    Mindless that something so dark and evil could possible be out there,

    they continue to see only the golden glow that lights up the sky.

     P4240016

    Suddenly in that moment when all seemed perfect the serpent strikes

    filling the soul with visions of horrors. 

    An emptiness takes over  the soul

    while  being sucked into the dark depths of the underworld. 

    P4240024

    The soul may be drawn to the waters edge through beauty,

    but without love in their hearts they are unable to resist the serpent.

     P4240027

    As the light looses it glorious color

    the serpent returns to the sea

    to await another soul in search of the beauty that  will

    lure them to the waters edge….

    Hope you enjoyed my little dark story and photos in celebration of Halloween. 

     

    On a personal note I have been taking some time off from the computer.  I spend way to much time here trying to keep up with everyone and what’s new.  I realize my lifestyle just doesn’t allow it.  I am getting way out of shape and having weight problems I never had before getting hooked up to the internet.  I also was getting overwhelmed with trying to post something and visit everyone.  I know this is suppose to be a fun place but it lost its fun and started to feel like a job.   So I will be cutting back to stay sane and get back in shape.  I will visit when time allows and post.  So many of you continue to be in my prayers and thoughts with love always….

    So Wishing Everyone a

    Happy Safe Halloween

    and a

    Good Morning……..     Good Afternoon……..      Good Night………

    Whatever it is to you

    So understand. There are times to just chill. The photo essay story just great. Perhaps, a children's publication might take notice? You do great photo essays/stories. Take care. Your self-care always comes first. God Bless.

    Love the photo's and story, I understand the cutting back of the computer, It's no fun when it feels like a job to post so often. I had to cut back also.
    Happy Halloween!

    Love your sense of humor in your writing this story. LOL. The photos are stunning.
    Carrie , I fully understand concerning blogging and the time it takes. I too have struggled with finding time to do everything along with work and 2 parents with serious health issues. I know it is a struggle to find the balance at times and I too need time to exercise among other things. You do what is best for you.
    You will be in my thoughts and prayers. Thankyou for sharing when you can with your thoughtful words and great photography.
    Your friends understand. You go girl! Get healthy and strong again. Your health is very important. You are doing the right thing for you.
    God Bless You Carrie
    Hugs!

    Loved the words and pictures Carrie, thank you. I've had times of trial with my blog but cutting it to once a week blogging and dropping by when I can on friends seems to have taken care of any problems I would have otherwise had. Have a great weekend.
