Photos App

Is important for my wellbeing

My Photos app

boasts of 240,000 items.

It took up so much memory

that I had to buy cloud storage.

I was ready to pay,

despite being frugal,

because the photos are critical,

they are memories.

I am a nostalgic person,

so, raft to the past.

To that into creativity and writing,

and these images are my muse.

You won’t find selfies there,

but my children, and the garden,

my walks, and art.

Many random things too:

a fallen nest, mushrooms,

ladybug, senescent leaves,

clover, found fossils,

harvested paddy, a banana tree,

feral cats roaming free.

Photos app on my phone,

is not about fun,

it's my zen and inspiration.
