Another memory gets recorded
The album of time holds a new photograph
***
Jeans shorts and a ponytail
Scrapped knees and a smile that’s rare
An old portrait from a fairytale
***
Childhood mates with toothy grins
Enfolded in friendship, protected by dreams
Living in a fantasy world, that’s evergreen.
***
A bundle of roses in anxious arms
Secret message wrapped in fragrance and charm
Capturing the affection of an unsuspecting mind
***
A day of beginning, a farewell to past
Armed with aspirations, dreams and hopes to broadcast
A sea of flying caps, cheers and speeches to last
***
White roses and a layered cake,
Kissing lovebirds dancing to a serenade
The perfect ingredients for an enchanted day
***
Old love that new, in an ancient couple’s heart
Years of laughs and tears, itched in with wrinkles and scars
Giving the impression, history has been kind
***
Palm trees bowing to a setting sun
Chanting a lone melody and swaying as one
Waving green branches in a farewell song
***
Flipping through life’s album,
Days and years surpass, with an adieu to existence,
We turn over the final photograph.
