Snap Shot (re-write)

With memories on paper
stopped time can show us our past
Back when we were happy
Back when we were in love

over thousands of words,
speak pictures
upon a quick glance,
they whisper your thoughts
from the frozen frame

If you never wanted to keep
those seconds forever
a picture you would not have taken.

PROMPT: Nobody takes a picture of something they want to forget. Sy Parrish

I like taking pictures so it caught my eye. I thought it would be cool to do this one.


Let me know what you thought

    Great write! It is so funny when people look back at pictures and think "We were so happy"... But that's usually because you don't take pictures when your sad. Great piece.

    I definately agree with you and the quote, we only take pictures of things we want to remember and like you said, they are a good reminder when times are tough that there was and will be good times, very true.
