beauty is...




beauty is
     a wing of white

caught on
     silver arc of light
sewn on
     drift of current strand
held aloft
     by unseen hand

beauty is
     a faith in flight.

I love the idea of beauty as movement. I probably risk wanting to hold it as something fixed. But it's caught up in a journey, sometimes with wild, beating wings.

But, yes, its entire arc is held in another Hand.

Beautiful picture of Grace, Laura. You're one of my favorite "photographers".
