I Caught A Glimpse Poem by Mark Hopwood

My eyes meander around the room
Looking for something to fix a gaze on
I caught a glimpse of a shining light
Then I blinked and it was gone.

It disappeared without a sound
And sank away without a trace
I went to look at where it was
But all I saw was an empty place.

I turned around and shuck my head
Surprised at what vision stood there
I rubbed my eyes and it had gone
But still I see her everywhere.

I reach out to touch
But my hand goes right though her
She has no face so I don't know who she is
But I hope and pray she is out there.
