A Glimpse Poem by Theresa Ann Moore
A Glimpse
Traveling along the highway on a cloudy day
Rushing with a hoard of others on their way
Flowing in the current of a rushing stream
Daring not to veer and cause an awful scream
Momentum and monotony match the dull climate
In the blur there is a sudden break that alleviates
Far ahead… up high… there is a patch of blue sky
With thoughts of sunbeams, I heave an envious sigh
Someone is getting a mega dose of uplifting rays
I wonder if they are giving the appropriate praise
They probably are taking the delight for granted
Unaware that they are in the land of the enchanted
The road takes a turn as I slow and exit to the right
No longer accelerating and drifting to a traffic light
Sunlight suddenly anoints; warmth bathes my existence
A spirited moment of privileged status has no pretense
Vanishing with the veil of a rapidly pulled curtain
The glimpse indelibly leaves an impression on my brain
A reminder with assurance that the supply will be ample
Giving a promise of more to come, with a small sample

Delightful poem and how fine to drawn inspiration while on a drive. Your ability to give thanks for that sunny shaft of light, however brief speaks well of your appreciation for life's blessings.

Theresa, reading your poems is always a rewarding experience heilping me appreciate living a little bit more. This 'trip' reminds me of the times I was driving to meetings on such a road as yours and it liberated my mind and sometimes inspired me to come up with new ideas and things to do. Always worthwhile getting out of the couch as it were and exploring the open road despite its dullness and monotony.
