Original artwork, not a still
As happens sometimes a moment settled and hovered and remained for much more than a moment. And sound stopped and movement stopped for much, much more than a moment. And then the moment was gone.

What it means
Our interpretation.
The speaker describes a moment that paused and lingered far longer than a moment should, with sound and movement both stilled completely. Then it ended. The passage marvels at how suspended time can feel enormous while it lasts, and how suddenly it disappears.
