"When Time Pauses - I Listen..."

"When Time Pauses - I Listen..."

A Poem by Chris
"

Now...

"
"When Time Pauses - I Listen..."

The wonder of our world 
~ as it is ~
is I AM looking at a Renoir
..."Sur La Terrasse"...
with coffee in hand
awaiting the arrival of the sun
to bring the day's hues to life -
and the woman and child timelessly
look through their glass
sharing their moment
with such as me.

A true appreciation, of timeless moments..
Art is a gift ..some find company there..and visit for hours
Some pass by.. and pay no never mind

I think you feel privileged to be in the Moments of the Masters.and their subjects..
But mostly you appreciate the wonders of your NOW..

I kinda like "such as you"..lol

Coffee, time and memories. I know this place. I enjoyed the poem. I remembered people missed and people I wish were closer. Thank you for sharing the outstanding poetry.

A poignant thought Chris... timelessly captured.

Ha I won't say what I just wrote and erased cause I read it to myself and even I saw a second meaning that made me blush. Though unintended LOL.

So I'll say it another way. I always get a big smile when I see you about. I thought today I would stop and say Hello !
I'm so glad I did. It turns out in synch with your poem and your about page.
Wow ! I'm so glad I paused :-) Happy Valentines Day Chris !
Though i don't visit much I hope NOW that you see the synch you will know my pause is earnest :-)

Fare Thee Well Friend, Till We Meet Again !

The simple occurrences in life can bring about some of the most fondest memories. The moments in which it seems like we are one with 'time' and all stands still.

Beautiful! I am still smiling. This is a lovely piece of poetic art!

Wishing you an abundance of creativity!

Viva the Poet!

With respect and smiles,

Time is precious, we should not let it slip by...so just stop and listen to whatever is the inspiration of the moment! Interesting choice or words...the way you look or listen...no?? Good perception my friend!

A blissful moment, captured with the skill of a true artist's brush. We all need such times of contentment and inner peace; so often we do not listen long enough or hard enough.

Beccy.

Sometimes the most simple things in life, a cup of coffee, the breaking of dawn, whatever the current moment 'is', becomes the most important, if we just listen.
