To paint a picture with letters
and words-
a photograph of phrases and crafted
sentences-
a sunset of prose and consequence-
a rising moon pieced together with thought-
how do you capture the body of a
moment-
in random lines and rhymes-
how do you capture the explanation
of time, when it’s as elusive
as a beast in the night,
and as delicate as a dandelion-
gone to seed-
how do you construct a sunrise
composed of memories-
or build a life from
hope and dreams alone-
tell me if it’s possible*
