Hummingbird Moments

Forever chasing
my hummingbird moments;
those bright, jeweled feelings
that speed up and defeat me
as soon as I reach
my hand out to grab.
Like some clumsy child,
who easily stumbles
over hidden rocks
but struggles through
long, twisted fields of ivy,
I gamely leap after
my fast moving prize,
hoping that, one day,
my hummingbird moment
will stop long enough
for me to touch it.
