Memories and Old Photos Revisited
before my eyes
they swim
in salt water
old photos
fresh with memories
I blink
reluctant to move
my eyes
tears water
my face
***
Christmas stockings in Altadena
Peanut butter sandwiches and milk on the lawn
Picking cherries in California
Thinking deep thoughts with Rosey Grier
Not sure what to do with all this snow above Altadena!
Shopping with Mom – Note boa (?) on daughter’s arm
Posing with Mom and Dad on a hot day in Arizona
Those were the days!
Beauty and memories captured on camera
Reminders of what endures from generation to generation
Have a happy weekend!
And don’t forget to take a few photos.
