Photographic Memories

We capture our memories in a photograph,

And seeing it at leisure, evokes a reminiscent laugh!

A camera does not lie as they say,

And we get a picture that with us forever stays!

A wedding photograph clearly captures,

The young couple in throes of love and rapture!

A family photo resting on the table,

Shows how the toddler the picture stole!

Milestones in our lives are worth freezing in a frame,

Those moments for us are our claim to fame!

They teach us to do well and continue to strive,

Seeing the pics renew our resolution and drive!

Glancing through our albums from time to time,

Brings on happy recollections and washes off the grime!

A tableau of our life flashing past the eyes,

Helps us stabilise and prevents our lifeboat to capsize!

A picture is worth a thousand words as we know,

It reveals as much as it needs to show!

A window to our soul it is,

But unenlightened ones will that miss!
