Best Framing Poems

Poetry is my photographer's way of taking a picture,

What - he - will...

Smiled postures, sincere familial moment
Each recounting the tales we told...

Tanned hands, they're hot - he drops his sweaty palms.

     Her lips - plum succulence. Hair’s suavely curl ~
     a brilliant cinnamon. He has some qualms.

Approaches...

familiar shapes to soothe the eye.
Images to christen every morning,
a picture to watch me as sleeping I lie....

Time is fast,

Time is slow,

But we all must take a specific route, 

But holding back, from all the Doubt,

That we may have in our heads,

Say your prayers, before you lay down and goto bed,

Sometimes, it may seem that He isn't real,
