A Picture's Worth a Thousand Words 📸

A Poem

What captures your eye?

Is it a sunset on the beach?

A pretty tall glass of wine?

There are a million things that capture our attention.

What should we take photos of? Are they always meaningful?

Photos can last a lifetime.

We take photos to hold onto a moment.

Photos remind us of good days and sometimes bad.

We save photos so we can go back and look when ever we're feeling sentimental.

As the phrase goes "a photo is worth a thousand words".

Do we take photos cause we don't know how to put those moments into words?

That depends on us.

Photos are there to let us know how good we have it

telling us to hold onto the important things.

Don't take life for granted.

Without photos how would we ever explain to our friends,

the crazy times we've had before they even came into our lives?

Photos are genuine and those moments in them are unforgettable.

Don't ever pass up a moment,

just stop and take it all.

Moments come and go, but photos last forever.

Pictures tell stories that only you and the people in them will ever know.

It's like a fun secret that you're apart of.

It's funny to go back and say "remember when? Or "you were so blah blah in this photo."

It can show you how happy you are and how happy the people and family in your life make you.

Photos also keep loved ones

who have left us in our hearts.

Seeing their smiles again and knowing things get better.

Without photos life would be a sequence of I don't remembers.

So take out that camera phone whenever you can,

No matter the nagging and complaining coming from whoever doesn't want to be in it.

One day they'll be happy they have memories to look back on.

Photos are life stories to share with peers and loved ones 📷
