A lovely old family photograph Diana and a good choice of topic for the time freeze challenge.
Not rich, not poor just sharing love - great lines, and what family is all about. Nice one Diana, cheers Valda

What a precious memory for you and your family. It always touches the heart to see members of a family; even thou you never met them. They are still part of your family; your past. Love your poem.

    I have so few of them and yes, so precious! especially of my dad. Don't have too many as I didn't get to grow up with him around. My grandparents were my rock though :) appreciate you enjoyed this. xoxo

I really enjoyed this poem. Your descriptions of the old photograph flowed well and really let the reader see the photograph through their own eyes. Photographs are amazing things, especially when they bring you back to good times.

I'm convinced. Your poem is authentic. That ancient photograph leaves no doubt about it. (You might consider bequeathing it to the Smithsonian Institution.)

A very well-written free verse poem about a photo of yesteryear that becomes a scene frozen in time to be enjoyed for generations to come every time we see that picture.

Five nostalgic stanzas. Three heartfelt generational photographically ancestral memories that pushes the poetess towards a flash back family research that cloudy flows throughout her childhood's epiphanies. Some photos really take us in a pensive mood of time lack that often make the sensitive soul nostalgically to a teardrop. I like it. Great work.

This is a memorable photograph Diana as time is always frozen within a photograph and no one ages within it. The moment the camera has clicked, time has aged the moment. Your choice words are endearing here, love Dolly x

What a smart idea using a photograph to represent the free verse "Time Freeze" challenge.

A photograph is perfect, a fun free verse full of great imagery moments frozen in time.

A most enjoyable read today.

I love seeing those old family photographs and I love to see people appreciate them the way you do, especially when you write such a descriptive poem to accompany it. Will you frame that, too?
