Immersed in clarity,
it's like trying
to run underwater.
senses sharpen,
surrounded by
surreal simplicity...
And then a blink
pushes fast forward.

Great!
These are the times when elapsed time seems to reel out of control, when it is merely a second taking place... You have captured an instantaneous moment. I have had these "clarity moments". I am ever grateful for them, to say the least. Excellent! I wish you well in the challenge.
Much Love & Happy Holidays ♥

I love the last two lines of this. I can so relate to them.

Exactly. Time slows to a halt almost and then all of a sudden catches up to you, but it still feels like a year past when it is done. You nailed it
Thank you for entering.
