Constance--a short but powerful poem that truly captures what old photographs mean. I've always been drawn to old photographs, even ones that aren't of my family. I find myself staring into the eyes of the people, curious as to what they're actually feeling and thinking. Memories are frozen in old photographs, and I enjoy unthawing them. A pleasant read. Enjoy your evening, Sara
