Manifesto for this day

there are moments every day that are special. special if only because you felt them, saw them, imagined them, wished them

i will
capture those glances, glimpses
chase the light and shadows as they create other forms
observe and contemplate
quietly rate stillness and silence
not think too much (until afterwards)
edit and refine, to keep
simple, simple, simple

sometimes there’s an absence which makes you look harder and appreciate more what’s actually there, or what has been

absence makes for imagining
wonder
joy

so,
keep looking all the time
try to see beyond
and rediscover what’s often lost
