Seeing Nessie

A head emerges from the loch,
the creature nears the shore,
he hopes to take a photograph -
alas, he's seen no more...

A Photograph

Blue eyes,
laughing,
 hands;
unkindly the memories pile together.
Severs of the heart shied away
kissing at their enclosure.

Photographic Memory

All points meet at you~
the sky, the sun, the water.
A still photograph
holds my happiness in ink.
I pretend that you still smile.
Form: Tanka


Vanity

¿I’m a historic photograph,
Of architected authors,
Actively arguing with musical philosophers,
About whether psychology is a science ¿

The Model

Clip my hair page boy
Blush my cheeks with sun peached dust
Spider lash my eyes
Set me up at dawn and dusk
I'm your living photograph .

This Photograph of Love

Our precious love 
Captured In
This photograph
Surrounded by 
This picture frame or
Could it be that dream, again
This photograph of love

The last time I took a photograph Instamatics were in flower No one could get over the expression on my index finger

Oh you pitiful copycat,
fake accounts you’re getting fat;
Polluting my shadow Spam,
you can’t be who I am;
That’s a dead person’s photograph.

An Image

A photograph?
Is that all?
A piece of glossy paper!
A photograph!
That is you!
A piece of glossy paper?
Really you?
You?
You?

Proud They Stand

Eagles stare bleakly
Icy, frozen lake hides food --
     Help from human hands

Dust

We took a novel to Rome, 
left it on a bus.

A photograph of us
between its pages.

Dusting a bookshelf,
recalling the photo
seeing us back then,

Premium Member A Memory Of Somebody

                              old photograph
          
                                 she smiled
  
                              many years ago

Premium Member Snapshot

a curled snapshot shivers in the drawer~ its blank center softly glowing, as if the moment it once captured were trying to return

Cubistic Nightmare

as i napped
i took a snap
a photograph

of you
in the nude
but your back

was in front
of me so i
couldn't

see
your
eyes

or
your
smile

Chandelier

A chandelier hung frozen in time
Locked in a hazy Italian photograph
Memories spark and sizzle
But die out all too soon
In a grueling cycle of remembrance

Nothing Exists

Nothing exists until 

                                                 photograph taken

Premium Member The Point of Pointillism

a moment captured

                                 deeper than a photograph

                                             a breath

Premium Member Take a Photograph

Freeze yourself
In your best moment of time,
Captured,
Never changing...
After a century passes
Will anyone know who you were?

Premium Member The Reluctant Bride - VIGNETTE

maybe the bride airmailed me a message
to object to their match would be a mad gaffe
so I found fulfillment in fantasy  
as off flopped her head in a photograph

If I were that girl in the photograph
They glared, they stared you had to be there 
A room filled with eyes
Was not a surprise 
Talk of the town but look how time flies

Monochrome Photograph

Life is like a game
of hide and seek.
It hides flowers sometimes
and shows thorns in peak.
I only see flowers 
through my eyes
and ignore the thorns
because I am wise.
