There are voices
in these woods
souls about the garden
They speak
if you listen
Not the grand
nor the showy
but the small, the shy
the sly pink blossom
requirring
a short lens
zoomed in close
a delicate hand
at the helm
while I say,
‘I see you there, small one.’

I like the idea of addressing what one is taking a picture of and saying “I see you there”.

Very pretty. Sweet and cute way of painting how photography can allow an intimate engagement with the otherwise ordinary.

You are my first read this morning, and your poetry, “but the small, the shy” will set the tone for the day, looking for the same.
