Re-Discovery By Noreen Inglesi When life’s path becomes uncertain And hindered by unanticipated intricacies When we can no longer glide Smoothly upon velvety waters Or circle dance like wildflowers In sweet-tempered zephyr We lie beneath shadowy sky Aching for moon’s gentle touch To guide us peacefully to re-discovery Of day’s misplaced passion Soothing the painful pangs of Sullen discontent As darkness falls We recall the day With new-found pleasure Each flower’s scent Brings new content Each bough of tree Or birds chirping with glee Brings sheer ecstasy Our family, our friends Touch us in ways never before Like digging for treasures Or searching for jingle shells Through infinite sands at the beach We recall fondly Perfumed scents of daytime bliss Still lingering in our hearts Amidst air heavy with night’s burden Passion’s thief lurks Ready to pounce On unsuspected prey We walk on paths Sometimes daunting And uncertain Yet, if we hold firm With eyes transfixed Staying exact and strong We will muddle through fog and mist And steer our way to shores clear Abounding with stories yet to be told Date When was this created? 2021 Location Where was this item created?

My name is Alan Roseman. I have been an active photographer for more than 50 years. Street photography is my first love and the Covid pandemic called me to the near deserted streets of Providence, East Providence, Pawtucket and Central Falls. Each excursion was painstaking for safety reasons as my age and health placed me in a high risk category. I felt the pandemic changed everything, my thoughts on the display of my work included. While it was never my goal, many of the images in the ongoing "Covid Days" album have won awards on the street photography sites internationally.
