Snapshots

Some folks have family albums

With pictures neat and nice.

For us the tattered shoeboxes

Still seem to quite suffice.

Old snapshots shared with loved ones

Bring back fond memories

Of "Good Ole Days" when we were young

"Hold still! Now smile! Say cheese."

These treasures in a shoebox

Are dog-eared, crackled, and old;

But childhood memories relived

Are worth their wait in gold.
