A COLLECTION OF TIME



  From our first look, a picture, a baby book,


  Pictures in school, pictures in the park,


  Home movies and videos, memories of who we are.


  A collection of time, scenes and images from a life,


  A scrap book of many filled and turned pages to see,


  Photo albums created from places, times with family.


  A collection of time, pictures faded, recalled faces that 
  Change,

  All that which we hold onto, saved in boxes, dusty shelves 
  Of thoughts.

  A collection of time, memories in our minds, treasures 
  Left Behind.
