It is always good to see so many generations together. It is weird that the two young boys are the only two not dressed up and not wearing shoes.
Good ekphrastic poem for the photo.
Good luck in the contest.
Keep writing and stay healthy.

This is an amazing poem, family must remain in our minds, because is not about legacy but about the happy moments from our lives:" What a day
it must have been
three generations strong
not rich - not poor
just sharing love
on a sunny summer day."
Thank you for sharing and good luck with your wrtings.

Uplifting imagery throughout--especially in closer: sharing love on a sunny summer day. I also like the whimsy: back when barefoot ruled the day. Cheers. LIZ

Such a beautiful picture and poem to go along with it! So many people seem to forget to stop and take a moment and imagine the story/memory behind old photos. It was refreshing to read your poem, keep up the amazing work!

Hello Diana. What a great picture and an exceptional story. I like your construction of the free verse poem. I read the poem intently to get the strength of family you honor in the work. Works like this help me to appreciate poetry even more.

This is well written.

Robert

This is a poem that allows us all to bring our memories of family gatherings through your memories and the photograph of your family. I am going to get out the family album and see if I can conjure up some memories of my parents and their parents having a beautiful summer day sometime in the great past. Thank you for sharing this poem.

I can't possibly choose a favorite poem. Too many to choose from, dear poetress. However, this is at the top and captured my last six for the week. Pathetic for a Monday, I know. This has an endearing quality to it, in the simple, sweet presentation, vintage photo, and construction of the poem. I love it. :))

Superbly done, dear poetress.
Sending you my best today as always,
Sally xoxoxoxo!!

It is good to sometimes think about the good old days. I can see those black patent leather shoes now, we also had white and brown saddle oxford shoes kids wore to school. Yep, those dresses bring back memories too and the men in khaki pants. (Smile).
You can almost hear your love ones talking to you.
Good luck with your poem.

    Thank you! What a wonderful review! My mom wore saddle shoes. When I was 9, I thought they were so cool and my grandma took me shopping and got me a rare (back then) pair of tan/brown saddle shoes and boy, was I in heaven!! Haha! Appreciate you enjoyed!! xoxo
