Photographs (All Her Beauty From Within)

After a long hiatus
I've decided to take
up photography again

and I've decided
upon my model,
soon the series
will begin.

I'll focus upon
her image through
the camera's lens

and capture
her essence,
all her beauty
from within.

essence-the inward nature
of anything, underlying its
manifestations, true substance,
the indispensable conceptual,
characteristics and relations
of anything.

filled with determination
and hope.
and i can always appreciate that.
well done.

the definition of essence... intriguing. like you added it as an afterthought. but it complments your work, and doesn't deract from it.. i like that it's at the end. you don't give anything away...

i also like that each stanza is very short... like a little snapshot.
truly, well done.
btw, august 27th is friday.
