Meditation 12

The photo demands

Undivided attention

An eye for detail

There is more to it

Than pointing a camera

And snapping a frame

One must have patience

With yourself and with nature

To become Ansel

A photographer

A poet with a Kodak

Is more than just this

Love for the subject

Beyond what you can capture

This is paramount

Of course there is more

That separates the true from

The fallacious

I am still learning

As it will always be so

Until I am dead
