A feast for your eyes

 

From the moment you are born

Your eyes open, you look around

Blurred colours, shapes overrun your cortex

You are oh so scared of the unknown

This hole in your face opens so wide

The rest of your face joins in, will it stop, will it rip?

 Wind sweeps in, “don’t like this” you cry in your first cry

“Put me back now, its bloody cold out here”, you think say,

“Who ever pulled me out can just put me right back”.

‘Click’, your first picture blinked, WOWEEE magic

There you have it, evidence life exists outside the womb

That womb with a view launches trillions of cells to help store a ‘flood of data’

Streams of information to fill the awaiting filing cabinets

All images must be passed through a huge filtration system

A system so refined it atomises each picture

Refining it. you form a clear crisp image, sent to the ‘in-tray’

Good stuff to the central filing system the rest recycled to the dream factory

Welcome to the world seen through the only digital camera you’ll need

Use them well!!!

Zuzanna thank you very much for you very kind words

One of the formats I enjoy is trying to put myself into another persons shoes or cive force to an object bringing it to life.

Thank you once my fellow poet

Philip,

WONDERFUL POEM!
You have captured new life, a miracle I call.


"Wind sweeps in, “don’t like this” you cry in your first cry

“Put me back now, its bloody cold out here”, you think say,

“Who ever pulled me out can just put me right back”."

These lines a very powerful image!!
Perhaps the new born feels that way, I am sure.
They are not able to say a word at the time of birth.
Beautiful write my dear Poet!

Thank you...Zuzanna
