Flash Lights

Picture by: HeatherNelson_India_Hobson


Flash light,  reflecting bounce on mirrors
Click and snaps to capture beauty 
And there we've got it, on postcards to love


Capture time, capture beauty 
Capture age of blossom beauty 
Before the hands of time is wind again


And wrinkles replace elastic skin
Bounce with youthful joy, smile with beauty 
Pose and hold back for a snap

  1. beauty just changes colors as you get older...smiles. it is still there...and what you once thought beauty to be blows in that same wind...

  3. There is a kind of balance between the camera and the flower - you captured that. Well done.

  6. Excellent, Kodjo! Especially the transition half-way through with "Capture time, capture beauty
    Capture age of blossom beauty"
    ties the piece together very well with lyrical repetition.

  12. Thanks for this, Kodjo. I'm one of those wrinkled "bounce for all you're worth" women, proud to show my age and young at heart. This was a gem. Peace, Amy
