A Photograph

A photograph is a memory
that time will never erase,
a treasured frozen moment
of a loved one's smiling face.
It's worth cannot be measured
as generations pass,
it's a constant reminder of yesteryear
when the clock ticks away too fast.
It's the somber look on a
newborn's face or a bride
on her wedding day,
a recollection of milestones
as we journey on our way.
It makes a house a home as
it hangs upon the wall,
and joyful conversations
for loved ones to recall.
Reminding us of our past
and the future yet to come,
it's an image of who we are
from the moment our lives begun.
