“Click”
The lens shuts
And opens again
A Kodak moment
Captured.
Towering Christmas trees
Expanding scenery
Of violet and brown
All the colors of the rainbow
And some.
Children showering each other with sprinklers
A shining ball
Bouncing gaily between kids
Right next to Lebron James
With a deafening jam.
Recollections of memories,
Memories I couldn’t keep by myself
Are painted here.
One-by-one
Emotions fill the room
They say pictures are worth
A thousand words
But a good photo
Will only mean
Love.
