The Imperfect Present

A Glimpse by Reena Choudhary (India)

12/3/2023

 
In fleeting moments, beauty gleams,
            A glimpse of dreams, like whispered streams.
A fleeting touch of nature's art,
            A symphony that fills the heart.

A sunbeam dancing through the trees,
            Unveiling life with graceful ease.
The world revealed in shades so fine,
            A glimpse of the divine design.

Eyes meet eyes in a crowded place,
            A fleeting smile, a hint of grace.
Connections made in fleeting chance,
            ​A dance of souls in life's expanse.

​Through open windows, stars alight,
            A glimpse of worlds in endless night.
Their distant glow, a timeless view,
            A cosmic hint of something true.

So cherish every passing glance,
            For life' a tapestry to enhance.
In glimpses, moments come alive,
            ​A spark of wonder, dreams to thrive.
