A moment of reflection

This is probably the best photograph I have ever taken. Or maybe the most appreciated so far. I've been writing poetry along with some of my photographs on Flickr. I think the popular term is Phoetry (Photo + Poetry). But since there are not that many takers for Poetry on Flickr, I decided to publish them here, on my blog too. Few more to come. Hope you like it.



Moment of Reflection
A moment of reflection, originally uploaded by Sudhamshu.



On this sempiternal journey I proceed,
a path oft-treaded, oft-dreaded.
Memories compelling me to recede,
and a gripping fear of where its headed.

A gaze at this road, never-ending,
A tumultuous mind meandering, drifting.
For a voice becalming, I yearn,
A hope of things beautiful, keeping me stern.

Time to slow down, to catch my breath,
Time for contemplation,
A moment of reflection.
