A passing instant, a sharp memory,
In a crowd our eyes met, exchanging vows.
The moment passed and she was borne away...
So I search knowing not the wheres or hows,
While on th'edge of a dream, she waits for me.
Tiny am I to be left out
Small and wondering where I am now
A spot a speck a dot seen quick
Tiny am I dwindling down
A point a miss a target that is
Small and wondering where I am now
Seen only through a telescopic point of view
An instant a moment of quickness
Tiny am I a star in the sky
Small from afar with open eyes
A blaze a flare of starlight
Tiny am I a shooting star
Never shall I love again
why, cause no forgiveness,
to forever plague;
a crumbling stone on the table, a golden soul;
Never shall I love again;
for it is written,
gone with the wind;
an instant, a flash;
How frugal the task?
Just like blowing, blown gone with the wind;
Never shall I love again;

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr. 2021©
The kingfisher is the diving tip of a rainbow,
a chromatic splinter,
a deadly certainty
piercing sky and water.
All morning it has perched high atop a dead tree.
The sun rose softly (good for fishing),
but now it glares and deflects the eye,
yet
here in this swift instant, a gaudy arrow of light,
plucks a small silver fish out of nowhere,
rises
until it is not even a shadow,
for a harsh sun has already hid it.
