a moment                the trip

thats gone                down memory lane
forever                      that you cant quite
impossible                 seem to commemorate                                to reproduce                 all rushes back to you
captured                     like an immense
in a single                  rouge wave
alluring                        crashing down
snapshot in time            on the unsuspecting sand

a simple                      the timeless moments
and intriguing             with people you never knew
yet elegant                   at places you have never                                 
and breath-taking            been
method                          until now
allowing even                
the most introverted           the childhood memories
quiescent soul                  that you cannot
to express themselves        travel
without the use                  back in time to
of words               
                                      until now
the international           
language                     this is an ode to you
that binds                    dearest photograph
the world                       for you
and all of its people              have the power
together                       to create a
                                     sempiternal
the nostalgia                life
that returns                for us people
each time you            who
gaze at one                cannot fathom
reconnecting                to do the same
you with the                
family
and friends
long passed
