Blink of Eye

Millisecond of retreat;
The near elusive occasion
occupying softened angles
and hushed curves found
cascading on an island tropic,
today reek of harsh isolation,
momentum driving eyelids descent;
a translucence behind weight bearing walls
rendered myopic.

*Just an exercise- focusing on one
moment in time.
< !signature-->

...chanson~

Music, tonal clear & pure,
Caresses the harshest of curves.
-me, Song of Gesture

Just takes a little imagination. Something that I have TOO much of sometimes.  

Thank you Jon!

Wow, I like this one, every moment is like another picture waiting to be drawn.

I think of an eyelid as the shutter of a camera lens and just snapped a picture  
Thank you Lost Dreamer!

chanson..this is written so well..i like the idea you said of the blink of an eye being like a camera lens..  youve captured each tiny picture on its own..and made a monument of a millesecond!  

very neat

Hello dg! I'm happy you enjoyed this snapshot. Usually, my picture taking
has alot to be desired...
being out of focus and all.  

Thanks again!
