A glint
of a memory
a scene from long ago
played like a visual echo
in the cinema of her mind
A sun dress
the one she had loved
billowing
as the sea breeze
softly embraced
bright blue cotton
adorned with white daisies.
Carefree on the sand
a golden haired
young beauty
laughing…
She caught the smile
as the picture faded away
tunnelling deep
Suddenly…
she wondered
Why am I smiling?

I enjoyed these lines:
“A sun dress
the one she had loved
billowing
as the sea breeze”
A fun moment in time…
Thank you…:)
A Moments Glimpse made me smile. It brought Steve Hanks watercolor paintings of young women to mind.

Smiles are the best way to convey the pleasure of looking back to a wonderful memory. This has me longing for the beach and warmer sunny days.
Hope things warm up soon! 🙂
What a wonderful way to express remembering. Had me smiling too. Thanks.
So beautiful; i was gently transported back. Love your vivid imagery from fresh glimpse to a picture fading…
This feels a bit similar to my ‘Grrl Cruising’.
I like your jewelry! Happy to have discovered you!
Oh this is very like the feeling of going through old photos is for me. A nicely painted visual here. Well done and thank you!
