He appears at peace
Buried, he seems asleep
Can one be free
Embedded in Earth’s shroud
Does one just wither like leaves
Leaving an imprint in time
Our eyes envision reality
The sun will set — and
Change the setting on the lens
dVersepoetspub.com takes a look at the photography of Mary Frances who takes pictures of things that are not there. This is one of her photos.
About Mary (tqhousecat)
I am married, and a mother of two grown children. I love Jesus and sharing my faith through written words. My poetry is on my blog and you can find some previous stories on Medium and linked-in. My focus is hope in Christ. My desire is that whoever reads this will be blessed, inspired, occasionally amused, kind, and patient to my growth in Christ as He conforms me to His image.
Great question… and yes there will be a reset of perspective! Very nice!

Oh, that ending couplet is really powerful. I’m going to be coming back to that thought all day. Lovely response to this image. Thank you for joining in.

Nice last two lines about changing the setting on the lens when the sun sets.

This is really deep with questions… what happens afterwards, and will that imprint last?

Though we wither away, I like to hope we leave our imprints behind a trace of who we were.

A very probing question Mary – it fuels deep thought. I like this piece!
