You make me feel like a fish out of water,
Gasping for breath in a saltless sea
Where I can't stay long for fear of exhaustion,
But while I'm there, I'm full of glee.
The wind and the waves have different feels,
The water constricting, the breeze divine;
If only I could stand to stay in the air
And make your reality mine.
However short, however brief I can keep afloat,
I'll see the moments memorised, everything etched in
To my tiny guppy recollection, still feeling every time
I brushed you with my fin.
But fish must swim and birds must fly,
And if we chanced to meet again
We'd be odds out, mismatched kin,
Unhappy to the end.

I think this is almost the last of my old, hidden-away poetry, so there won't be any more unless I get some new inspiration. Copyright L.P.V. |

In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.

The photonotes.org Dictionary of Film and Digital Photography is one place to stop and get it all answered. This is quite a valuable resource that explains in depth what a photography term means, and will help those understand who might not know what something is. |
