My Camera

For everyone of those memories, good or bad, they belong to us and no-one else.

My Camera

 

A blink,

A moment,

A memory,

Forever held in time.

 

A kiss,

A tear,

A story,

Forever will be mine.

 

Protected in this skin,

When life and years decline.

 

A dream that visits regularly,

So painfully devine.

 

Something precious,

Something past,

My heart will always pine.

 

Because you visit regularly,

Esquisite pain devine.

A divine write...Bravo..............

[fireblossom]

The layout and words well convey how the camera catches moments. I found this to be very interesting and a perfect poem to tell the story of the camera. I notice it was first posted in 2008. Did you do some small editing or simply feature it?

Very good writing.

'Esquisite' may be 'Exquisite'

oh i love your style and i love this piece!!!!

[Samith Pich]

Nice. I liked the way you personified the camera into yourself, the shutter of the camera 'blinks' and memory flashes are protected by a 'skin' of film. I would have liked to see you continuing to explore this relationship between cameras and you but nevertheless it's a fine poem

Thanks for sharing

I lovethe rhyme poetry when done well as this one was.. where there words seem to be chosen for meaning and not just ryhme.. I love the idea as well and I take my camera everywhere.
