Sometimes I'm lucky enough

to take a photograph that excites me,

an image that's a visual metaphor.

It might say

"oneness"

"grace"

or

"sadness."

"Seeing All the Way Through to the Heart of Things" © 2009 Meri Arnett-Kremian

Here, the magic for me is in

the wavy panes of glass showing their age,

being just as they are.

The meaning I ascribe shines through

the transparency and openness,

the way you can see all the way through

to the light on the other side of things.

The light

so pervasive and yet delicate,

coming in quiet in the morning

and illuminating everything inside .

The art leaning up against the window walls,

 hidden treasures just waiting to be revealed.

The whole tableau speaks to me

of light

and open hearts

and the gift of creativity.

What moved you today?

Tell me.
