Zachary = Poem #9

Family Photos

There are family photos from every year

with smiling faces decorating the walls

changing slowing as seasons pass.


Baby pictures that are always “cute”

despite the spagetti sauce on their face

and ugly clothes that they used to year.


Vacation pictures in decorated frames

lined with postcards or sea shells

filled with silly children faces.


Photos featuring all the past decades

from the mowaks and the “utah poof”

to the crazy 80's hair do's.


How easy did I forget?

That time swiftly travels by

and life will always change,

never to be the same.
