Scenes captured
Eternity frozen in a glossy sheet
Windows to the soul unlocked
Opened to let the spring breeze filter through
And smiles shine
Behind poses
Awkward hugs or handshakes
Scenes captured
Seasons held in a paper cradle
Babies long since grown held
In dead relatives arms
Smiles wilt
From a time that has floated away
Through the open windows

Scenes captured
Eternity frozen in a glossy sheet
Windows to the soul unlocked
Opened to let the spring breeze filter through
And smiles shine
Behind poses
Awkward hugs or handshakes
Scenes captured
Seasons held in a paper cradle
Babies long since grown held
In dead relatives arms
Smiles wilt
From a time that has floated away
Through the open windows
