Your camera is now in my possession
And your eyes are now part of mine
I take photographs of natural beauty
The scenery around me is so divine

Such a love you had for photography
This same love you have instilled in me
You come to mind so very often
Especially when I have my camera with me

But the most treasured of all my photos
Are the ones I have here in my mind
Such images are irreplaceable
In an ordinary album you will not find

They are pictures of you everlasting
That I hold deep inside my heart
Images of you will never fade
Nor will the love you did impart

So many memories I have of you
In this album within my mind
So much love shines from these images
When I see your face so warm and kind

Many of the passions you had in life
Have now been passed on to me
Though sometimes my days may seem cloudy
Through the lens it's you that I see

I see you amongst the flowers
You are the brightest one on show
You meant more to me than anything
How I wish I had told you so

I can't reverse the hands of time
So through my pen I'll write my love
And I hope I have made you proud
As you view my life from up above

Sue....I think this is to your Dad...if so,
I KNOW HE IS very proud of you...and always
has been...Your love for him is an inspiration itself...

Hello Floria

Yes, I have been thinking of my Dad more than normal lately and you observed this so well.  If it wasn't for my love for him, maybe I never would have picked up a pen to write.  It upsets me sometimes that in all that I have done he wasn't here to share in my triumphs and that breaks my heart.  Thank you for your constant encouragement and I know, like myself, your writing helps you a lot and the love you had for your son is so very evident in everything you write.

Take care......Sue
