shelved sd card

what does it mean when you are "capturing the sunset" with no card?

it means i have to hold what beauty i saw in my memory
wide across the sky
bigger than the prints and digital boxes
with which i first tried to limit my vision
beauty is boundless and momentous
momentary

...
my sunset stretched itself across the country all the way around the world to greet me again this morning with my baby's outstretched arms to reach me

it's a sunset, a memory, a moment, it's now
wrapped up in a sunrisey bow

Love. There's something about holding some things exclusively in your memory that makes it that much sweeter. Camera's can't always capture the feeling. :)
