How interesting, I don't think I have seen this artwork ~ I like the cyber interfacing in the first part, and the arms embracing, which for me speaks of making it a reality ~ Sweet response, thank you Truedessa ~ Happy New Year ~
ReplyDeleteHi Grace,
DeleteThanks for hosting! I couldn't decide which artwork to use then I saw that one and it just jumped out at me.
Nice! You put a less bleak view of the art -- instead, we have valued memories, timeless beauty and embrace. Loved it.
ReplyDeleteWell, I guess I just prefer to see light. Thanks!
DeleteWonderful imagery, perfectly captured in your words.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ginny, this was an interesting prompt.
DeleteIt is good to infuse the poetics with a positive vibe; too many dark dystopian responses leave us in a negative place. I did not see that image in the selection; it is a whole different dominion with two figures.
ReplyDeleteHi Glenn,
DeleteWell, you know I tend to be a bit of a romantic so I guess that is where my mind wandered.
Don't save on floppy disks! No computer reads those now.
ReplyDeletehaha - that is so true a flash drive would be the way.
Deletecool. we do try to capture those moments...though we have to be careful not to be so busy capturing them, that we do not live them...i like the intimacy you got out of the techno jargon in that first bit...
ReplyDeleteHi Brian, that is true we need to remember to live our lives not just capture the moments. Living, breathing and feeling alive is a good thing.
DeleteYes, you definitely are a romantic. So am I, believe it or not! Cackle.......
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping over..always nice to see you here.
DeleteYou make tech human

I think I would much rather have a human touch..see a smile, hear a voice all the things we humans do well.
Deletefreeing space in our heart...i think that is the core here for me... not just capturing the moments but free to embrace them
ReplyDeleteThat is very true sometimes we need that human touch.
Deleteprecious memories saved forever...that's the best part of "interfacing".
ReplyDeleteThat is true..saving those moments.
Deletelove is our virtual reality... nice
ReplyDeleteBut, can love be uploaded into the universe?
DeleteLove How you found that unique picture of togetherness - Evenås Cypern has its romance.
ReplyDeleteI guess one never knows where romance can be found.
Deletelovely capture... Those memories are little films... smiles... inserted into our brains, like a floppy disc in a computer tower.
ReplyDeleteHi Anthony - I wonder how many of those disc are taking up space out there. Our brains really are mini computers in many ways.
DeleteMoments we capture and hold onto, reloading at will or sometimes they reload without us even thinking, out of the blue. Not sure floppy disks can hold much though haha
ReplyDeleteThat is true reloading sometimes when we least expect and it makes us pause to reflect.
DeleteVery clever, and positive, take on the prompt. I like the link with movies and the idea that good moments can be reloaded.
ReplyDeleteHey, our lives are the greatest movie and we are the stars.
DeleteI like the idea of precious memories being saved forever.. nice! Rather than becoming obsolete, they are useful. Very cool poem.
ReplyDeleteI guess we need to decide what memories to store and which ones to delete.
DeleteFloppy disks, almost ancient relics now. I still have a few stories written on some of them. :)
ReplyDeleteI am sure you do have a story or two and I can't wait to read your book "Woven" when it is released I am sure it will be amazing.
DeleteNice view of technology. I like how you infused a romantic aspect to it. Very creative.
ReplyDeleteThanks Myrna..
DeleteI remember hearing our words are never lost - they bounce around the universe. Maybe memories do, too. The happy ones, I hope.
ReplyDeleteHmm that could be true words and memories bouncing all over the universe.
DeleteThese captured arms and hearts when free space was still available....ah, your poem really touching deeply, true...
ReplyDeleteThank you Humbird..I think we all need to free some space here and there.
DeleteTruly there was a time when my electronic equipment seemed alive.. and then I went out to really dance and then i too.. became a life!..;)
ReplyDeleteI like that, so glad you went out to really dance..
DeleteThat's the beauty of it. Things can now be saved unlike before. One's efforts are recorded in memory! Wonderful write Truedessa!
ReplyDeleteHank
Thanks Hank, saved for generations to come.
DeleteA sweet interpretation! :)
ReplyDeletereminds of the the Pensieve in Harry Potter, where they could extract and store memories from a tear... ~
ReplyDeleteI had forgotten that cool image..thanks..
