That Cursor

Free Verse

Taking those photos

Sunrises, sunsets

Beautiful nature

What sights to see

 

Download very soon

On the computer

Where they flash across

The screen surprise me

 

Just like I am there

This morning sunrise

Flashed across the screen

But there that bright dot

 

Morning star shinning

I don't remember

Taking that picture

Early morning__dark

 

Half-asleep_distance

Let me get closer

No glasses_sleepy eyes

Close enough now

 

That isn't morning star

It is just that mouse

That mouse cursor

Pretending to be star...
