The shutter’s click <br />gathers the sunlight <br /> <br />softly sifting it <br /> <br />stealing this glance <br /> <br />of you <br />as you <br /> <br />shade your eyes <br /> <br />against its harshness. <br /> <br />For weeks <br />your image sleeps <br /> <br />curled up inside <br />the camera <br /> <br />and only now <br />awakens <br /> <br />like a Princess kissed <br /> <br />your smile <br />bright as forever <br /> <br />held <br />in all its brilliant laughter <br /> <br />...still.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/still-for-laura/
