Still Life

I'll look at your picture again today, but in my mind You are kinesthetic, though my images do not flow smoothly But jump about in unpredictable stop and go, Attitudes that melt suddenly to find animation. You are never still but keep on trying at my idle doors Demanding Entrance! Lamps be lit! I'll look a bit longer at these photographic eyes Picturing again the life inside.

A mesmerizing piece, Elizabeth. Photographs do...sometimes...have the effect of triggering all kinds of memories and emotions.
