What do you see ?
Is it the image you made up ?
Is it darker in that world ?
Is there one but only in your mind ?
For that moment you linger.
Wondering if it sees what is inside.
Every once in a while the view is spectacular.
Like it captured the inner lining.
The not so distant view we used to have.
The world we wish.
Or does it sense the others around us.
The wrinkles that form.
The angles of the line.
The moments of despair.
It exaggerates.
It fills the cracks within.
The tiny spaces that we didn't see.
Before we looked into that world.

Wow, you wrote that off the top of your head, unedited? Sure, I write that way too, but it never comes out close to that good!
Amy ~ I did post it twice though. I had forgotten to add the link to the other magpie tales. I usually do just write the first things that come to my mind. Sometimes I write down thoughts and words and come back to it but normally I am busy and just do what I first thought of. In this case, I did just that.
I was thinking of an odd mirror that doesn't look like the rest of what you think it should.
Thus, the is it a different world or just the one that it wants you to see or is it what you need to see.
Halloweenish in a way ...
That was terrific!
fantastic! And off the top of your head? Could you spare a little for me ? :)
Really beautiful words=you are very talented and I always enjoy your writing, JC!...Kisses to your lovely babies.
The contrasts of photos so often highlight the difference of what we see and what might truly be there if we saw clearly....
Beautiful.
I love the fact that you sat and wrote ... without second thought or revision ... very nice!!!
Bravissimo!

Nice. I really like the line "Every once in a while the view is spectacular".
