They tumble into the photo booth,
laughing so hard their sides ache.
One, two, three pictures, four,
The poor little shack seems to quake.
The first photo is crazy,
with bodies galore,
shoving and pushing,
like a scene from a war.
The second one is just as chaotic,
with hair and faces all around,
but they all are in good moods,
and smiles abound.
All the others are offshoots
of the first two crazy shots,
guaranteed to make you laugh
till your stomach's in knots.

I hope this makes you remember earlier times when you were having a good time!

This brings back so many wonderful memories of those silly photo booths. You don't see them so much anymore though so we make do with just getting a sketch when we visit Chuck E Cheeses to play games. Thanks so much for your entry.

Hey now, I still have fun and good times. This is good though, it feels fun.
I've got no real suggestions, but you might consider switching up a word or two. -

This is really good! It's funny and sweet and simple, and it feels sort of like reminiscing. Nice job!
