Spark

Moments dissolve under my fingertips
meaningless 

The spark 
oh, that spark 
how I chase you! 

You tease me 
tempt me 

I dream of 
the other side of the page  

Blissful 
virginal world 
of my creation 

The rush! 
Spark ensnared! 

Fleeting 
elusive 

Fingers fly 
across the keyboard 
before the 
evaporation of 
the Spark

*Although this was originally written in 2019, I hope you 
don't mind a repeat. Lately, I have been having trouble 
getting that 'spark' back.  I'm in pursuit again! :)
