The Daunt

Dog days

The blank page
on my computer screen
glares back at me
and our eyes hold
each other
for a while,
as do two lovers
on their first date
waiting for someone
to finally speak up
and break
the daunt.

    Like a still photo this poem captures that pause in time where being struck by someone or something leaves one speechless. It is as if time pauses. Well done.
