The Picture

 

It appeared quietly,

No fanfare,

Instantly intriguing,

Holding my gaze

Long after my

Initial viewing.

Was it the sheer

Beauty,

Perhaps the touch of

Aloofness,

Maybe the hint of

Melancholy,

Or the mysterious

 Cord connecting us

All,

That periodically

Gently jolts us

With a haunting

Glimpse

Of things we know

But don’t remember.
