  1. I saw a person just the other day and they were walking so quikcly I just got a glimpse of who they really were. It was amazing that I could even see anything, but I guess the eyes and senses are quicker than we think. It was a great experience because I will try to

  5. a glimpse. i often catch glimpses of girls all the time and i think immediately how cute they are and what like about them. like there hair or there smile, if they smile at me or at all. or how the dress or something small like a laugh or a habit. i notice these things in glimpses and then seemingly forget about them. but i never forget about them completely. i just store them in my mind and add them up always looking for a girl who will take a glimpse of me.

  6. I glimpsed a girl in a red dress. She was wandering around the playground, looking down at the ground. She glimpsed at the merry-go-round and the red circle, desperately wanting to jump on the twisting spinning disc.

  7. A glimpse can relate to absolutely anything…a glimpse of a person, a thing, a thought, a feeling. Today I caught a glimpse of the sun, of love, of a friend, of an enemy. What did you catch a glimpse of today?

  8. As I glimpsed the light coming off of the window I felt that nothing could ever be as it once was. The earth had taken it’s fnal Plunge and I was going down with it.

  10. I glimpse into the bleak future, what has man to look forward to? Anniliation, death? What god would condem his creatures to such a fate.

  13. he saw a glimpse of a familiar heaven, red, blue and yellow, in layers, on top of each other, building, building, building.

    the horizon melted away into the distance.

  14. As I gazed up at the word I dreamed in my mind that it would be some sort of magical word that would dance along my thoughts and I may be able to describe it to you like a song. Glimpse is a beautiful thought, to move your eyes to look at something sor a moment to take in a snap shot of your own mind and imagination. For what it is you are taking a glimpes at, it could be anything, but the mere sense of seeing, of taking something in starts the mind to kick into gear, for to glimpes is simply a miricle.

  15. To look. to glance.
    to barely look and look away fast.
    the way you look at something you shouldn’t.
    bleh..
    the girl glimpsed at the boy with desire.
    a synonym is glance.

  16. what can i glimpse outside my window today
    what can you see on your way to work\
    what does a child see when they look out the car window
    what does an old man see when he looks out his back door
    is it reality or our perceptions that make a difference?

  17. i caught a glimpse of a woodchuck in my barn the other day. last year a family of woodchucks destroyed my garden, so there was no question but that this one had to be eliminated. because the space was confined, i ran back to house and grabbed my pellet gun. i waited for anbout 20 minutes, until my paptience expired, but the little fellow never emerged from his hole again. So today I bought a package of smoke bombs. i respect living creatures, but if it becomes a question of survival, and one of us has to go, it won’t be me!

  18. When I glimpsed into the mirror, I didn’t know what to look for. Should I see myself in there? Should I see everything I long for in life and wish to become? Or should I see the end to all my past means? The man I wanted to become when I was younger?

    Mirrors are such trivial things, anyway. Why do they do that to me?

  19. i only have to glimpse to see myself in you and i know you see the same in me. we’re running out of time.

  20. and i looked out the window to watch everyone passing by, to see if they would look back at me and i saw a lady with a red coat and she glanced up but of course she might’ve only been looking at the horses that are under all the windowsills (it’s hidious and I’m afraid of them), and anyway she was wearing sunglasses so I couldn’t tell.

    And then I saw a friend, and I kept myself from waving frantically to hope he could see me on his own, but he didn’t and i felt dissapointed as hell and pretty upset.

  21. and again, i looked and saw the little shimmers on the top of the water, little dragonflys kissing the water with their feet and ripples from the little waterfall up above and reflections dancing and waving because it was a really sunny day and it was too bright to look at the trees themselves, because the flowers were blooming a blinding white up into the face of the sun where it was difficult to look. And i caught a glimpse of someone i thought i knew but it turned out not to be them at all.

  22. A glimpse. A momentary sight of a fleeting moment. More than just an insignificant glance, but not enough for certainty. It is a look that contains an aura of importance, something that you just can’t shake or figure out. A glimpse.

  23. I saw him, he was glimpsing at me. My heart nearly skipped a bit. I loved how he kept on looking at me, staring at me, but really, I felt unconfortable inside. It wasn’t that I didn’t like it, I really did. Flirting with him was like eating ice cream everyday. I do really love him, he means the world to me…really. But deep inside…is it really love?

  24. i catch a glimpse of her through the door, this beautiful woman, blonde hair shining in the shine, and I can’t help but stop to catch my breath. For once again, I have been struck by her incredible beauty.

  25. I got a glimpse of his head as he walked by he bus. he nape was clean and white. I wanted to touch it. But the bus moved on and I watched as he disappeared from sight.

  26. all it was was a look. a moment a passing, fleeting second. I saw him…in a stained work polo and a visor that did nothing for his hair but endear him to me. I fell in love in that moment.
    It was a gut reaction, a squirming mass of panic. It was bliss, all in a glimpse. I couldn’t have wished for anything more real, but I still thought it to be too good to be true. I was wrong.

  27. to catch a glimpse, her eyes the first time i saw them caught my attention

    my love

    a short glance, a quick peek, a first sighting

    i saw her everyday, we started talking

    we are now closer than i could have ever imagined

    the best days of my life so far are now.

  28. i caught a glimpse of.. oh shit isn’t that sort of a cliche? Well, let’s talk about the nature of the word instead of its meaning. Hopefully I won’t digress to simply narrating my thought processes, and will actually get down to business here. So, the word glimpse. Writing any kind of fiction is out. It’s sort of an awkward word, isn’t it? With its strange consonant sequences, it has a lot of potential to be funny, just by the way it sounds, even though its use isn’t noticeably prevalent in comedy. “Glimp”. Almost reminds me of Colonel Klink. Or GIMP. There’s also something unsettling about “mps”. How many words contain those three letters in a row? Now I’m starting to wonder whether it’s been sixty seconds, because my interest in starting to wane, and my keyboard is in an awkward position, and my hands are straining. I do not want to stop to move it for fear of not following the instructions to write constantly for sixty seconds. Well, I guess we’ve moved on from glimpse.. Actually, I’m starting to suspect that there is no timer, since I’ve been writing for more than sixty seconds, thereby violating the terms of the experiment. As such, I am somewhat disappointed that I was not made aware of this at first so I could time myself, and now I have wasted my time doing this. Great.

  29. I caught a glimpse of him and my heart went into overdrive. Old feelings came back in that single glimpse

  30. A glimpse is a quick look, a quick stare if you will that allows you to sum up the whole product in a quick second. You can also get disqusted with a glimpse or aroused tremendously. A glimpse is so much in so little time.

  31. i got a small glimpse of something wonderful and didn’t know what to do with it. I wish i was brave enough to do something about the glimpse of greatness that I saw. Just a small peek into something that I want so badly.

  32. Glimpse. hmmm writer’s block already? This does not bode well. Well, I guess you can only catch glimpses of the future…and those may not even happen. I guess it all comes down to learning from past experiences to help you in the future. Hindsight is always 20/20, though it may not always be so black and white when applied to the future.

  33. glimpse. just one. that’s all it takes to notice the one. the one you want to see. that one. he may not be ‘the’ one, but he is the one which will comfort your eyes for now. before the next glimpse comes, of someone else. but for now, all you need is this one tiny shred of a glimpse, and it’ll be enough.

  34. It sorta seemed like a way to glimpse back into his childhood. He could totally get over his girlfriend by beating super mario bros on his nintendo NES. any day now. anyday now.

  35. I catch a glimpse of true joy when I look into her eyes. The mind can never see that which the heart justifies but I know that I love her and I don’t know why.

  36. look and see what you can while you can, glimpse is a beautiful way to see every thing in life, glimpse left, right, up and down, glimpse when glimpsing, this will ensure you see all that life has to offer! Never miss anything again by glimpsing.

  37. This is the method of seeing. But what we see, is not reall what we see. It’s what we think we see, in the blink of an eye. This cannot be called seeing. That is why it is called what it is. Typuically, this could lead to mistakes being made, because such an informal look results in a quick assumption being cast. Indeed, glimpsing at the word glimpse, I could be very wrong in writing what i am writing now.

  38. i take a glimpse at the shopping show windows and realize that I really do want what’s on display.
    Something so simple as just a glimpse can catch my attention and make me feel the want for the material. Maybe this shows that I can be materialistic. Maybe I need to stop being this way.

  39. In just a glimpse he looked at her. The rain was wetting her hair and it should have been a depressing sight. But it wasn’t. She was radiant – and probably always would. There he stood, fully loving her but not capable of keeping her. It was him not her – there was no hope.

  40. i caught a glimpse of him walking down the hall. he scares me a bit.not in a conventional way ofcourse. its just that he knows so much about me.he could use that information at any given moment and destroy me. i’m treading a fine line with him. it scares me that i mist pretend to not know anything about him as well.
