Trapped moments in the anals of time
Memories not their only bearer to tomorrow
Moments taken, posterity's footprint sublime
Something to hold onto in our greatest sorrow
Take not one second to record their existence
And forever, proof of their importance is lost
Remember to record what matters through persistence
Forever keeping them alive in the heart for such little cost
Our greatness only lasts a time so fleeting
And the piper comes for all to eventually pay
Leave behind fond images of sweet meeting
Of those special souls, because none of us get stay
Not forever, but a blip in time so short and hard
Take their images as they're young
And at barbecues in the back yard
Leave them for others, and let this world know of your fun
About the Creator
Jason Morton
From fiction to reality there’s tons to share about this crazy life. From being a single father, an officer, and having had many insane adventures while I learned about the world, my imagination runs wild with ideas.
