Caught

As the little fish jump and sparkle
The sun is finishing its travel
Lightly coming to a close in 
Casting its fading light just so
You can see the flash and glow
Ripple like tony gems caught
In an instant like fireflies
Scattered along the surface
And you cannot catch it or
Hold it in your hand or snap
A shot to recall the magic of
The moment instead you sit and
Watch the glittering spread in
Oft repeated places and you 
Take in the secret of this time
Into your soul for it will be gone
Then you wonder if you will have 
The chance again to be in awe of
The hidden chance to be drawn
Into the created moment just for
You to surrender and not be caught
