Sharp Relief

Pictures of you
Lighting stridently bold
You’re a negative
In sharp relief

They froze you
In plastic time
A look of shock and awe
Is so pretty
In a way

Out on the streets
Car headlights shine
Your bag is crystal
Your hair on fire

Colours all wrong
Like a ghost you flutter
Butterflies bright
Are so pretty
In a way

About Helen

I'm drawn to blogging as a way to share ideas and consider what makes us who we are. Whether it's in our working life or our creativity, expression is a means to connect.
