This happened
Faster than the speed of light,
Immediate like deja vu;
While coming across your picture,
Just then, I am with you.

As enlightening as an epiphany,
Shorter than a sub nano Zen;
I was one with my reality,
I am in the picture then.

I snap back,
I put it back
Beneath the orchid cloth,
Where time and space lie dormant
For these moments that I have.
The emotional tie to a picture of my daughter, and not unlike deja vu, yet much different, the moment of presence was real, but sooo instantly shortened. Wham.
Ever happen to yourself?
