Capturing Moments

Pictures they capture our moments in life,

like the moment you marry your husband or wife.

They help relive those memories like a story,

to capture our hearts or revist OLD history.

A picture could be that of a loved one,

someone you've lost or alive and well son.

Remembering those last words to you were “I Love You”,

you carry there picture, knowing they will always guide you too.

The memories you have live on within us,

emotions can become real through a picture we trust.

Sometimes a picture is a memory we erase,

throughout life we make new memories to fill that space.

Or the precious moments we have throughout time,

With Social Media and News its a nice break from all the war and crime.

Like to see the moon at its brightest light,

or a clear night of stars that twinkle in the night.

Maybe the suns going down leaving that crimson sky,

you capture these moments without needing a reason why.

You can guarantee a picture wont let you down,

showing you its meaning without any sound.

Only to capture the truth, what you see is what you get,

like a card game, when you see your cards you place your bet.

Few moments later all bets are done,

then show those cards to see who won.

You check in close while Antes go up,

you hope to see and play their bluff.

To capture a storm on that beautiful day,

as the clouds roll in with the darkest of grey.

You capture the brewings of the aftermath,

outside your house along the garden path.

From your babys first steps to marrying your soulmate,

with all this who knew pictures could be that great!
