Description

Just a click time stands still A person frozen fast Never more to move at will A glance to cast~ A lovely face it will not age No wrinkles to gain Eyes no one will ever gauge Their joy or pain~ A memory A loved one lost Because time takes it toll How insignificant the cost To freeze a soul~ A photograph, clear and true Brings memories sublime Of lifelong love and how it grew Not dimmed by time~

Wow - you have written some beautiful poems, but to me this is one of your best! You have captured, in such a meaningful way, the essence, heart, and soul, of a photo. Exceptional. Vote. :o) CC

Superbly articulated! Wonderful balance of feeling! I can't help but think how our Native Americans and other cultures view their pictures being taken! But then again, how I hold so dear some of mine! Bravo!

Another excellent poem you have done!! Beautiful, and awesomely written. Sorry for the delay in coming over, but I did see it earlier, but was on my way out the door and promised myself to come back. Well, I'm back, but about 24 hours later than originally planned! haha...so busy this week-end, but we got a LOT of chores done. You are a gorgeous person! :c)

Wonderful words that are so true. It is amazing how a photograph can freeze a moment in time. It will make that one moment and all of it's emotional ties captured and forever become a gateway to the past. You said it perfectly here...
