Cool Parisian Springtime morning
Found at the same spot standing
Where the photographer had been
A bird's eye view of a spectacular scene

An artist's perspective creation
Set to stop in time at a distance
The Roman numerals unmoved unconcerned
But the hands  ticking away in motion

High above for a moment in time
Meditating alone on life's challenge
Undisturbed but peacefully aligned
Appeased in dreams that seemed blind
