Poem Artwork

Not everybody trusts paintings but people believe photographs.- Ansel Adams

NO ANSWER

In the photo, a woman waited
Color pale, creased and faded
A timid smile on her face
By a curtain, gently laced

Her eyes were sad, yet held belief
Captured in that second, brief
A mystery behind those eyes
To which no answer....could apply

For she was timeless in that pose
Forever young....as moments go
And when she woke to see the dawn
Where those lace curtains, gently drawn

Who took her photo on that day
And how much can a picture say
She left her soul print.....so sedate
And now we're left......to speculate

A momentary glance into a lens also captures a still of the thought in progress. What that thought was we shall never know. Maybe if we look long enough into the glance?

She is beautiful but yet she doesn't look happy and in that, we could certainly fabricate many a speculative tale. This photo proves that not every picture is worth a thousand words because not much is revealed in this case. Judging from the names at the bottom of the photo, this is a picture taken by a professional which makes the mystery even that much more intriguing. Nice work, Anita.
Take care,
Sherry

It is amazing the different answers you'll get from asking questions. You find out more about the observer themselves. Kids are great at coming up with unusual answers.
Love,

This is a wonderful and purposeful write and reading the poem I kept glanceing at the picture and with each glance your words rang trurer. It stirred the imagination to read what the picture could and did represent and left a wonderful sense of knowing this women whos existance was not just in this picture.

The ravages of time. A still photo is momentary. But it is a memory too. Victor
