ImaginationA Poem by Natasha Montgomery
I fell in love with a stranger today.
The sun was setting on the coarse, choppy, water. Wind blowing wisps of the white caps, and littering the brackish water throughout the woods. His children, a girl no more than 6 and her little brother, no more than 2, sitting on a gazebo. Their right sides and backs to the golden rays and dark green bay. Sheltered. He had set up his tripod for photographs. I watched with music playing in my ears. His little girl smiled, I smiled back so happy to see her happy. Childhood joy. Then I noticed he was watching me, not looking through his camera. I blushed, embarrassed to let myself show joy in that moment. He smiled with just as much joy to me.
