Capturing the moment

VIEW LARGE ON WHITE

 

capturing a butterfly

with a camera

makes a great metaphor

for freezing fleeting bursts

of magical moments

each flitter is a unique gesture

which passes in an instant

each flutter is a singular motion

which never comes back

 

Looking through my viewfinder while trying to capture this butterfly reminded me how important it is to live in the moment. It doesn’t matter how simple or insignificant that moment might seem to be. I know that within it lie incredible wonders, but which only my heart can see.
