“PICTURE FRAME LOVER” by Bill Charles ~~~~ One or too many miles, doesn’t matter to me… I’m here, you’re there, still you that I see… It’s been a long time, since I held you close… Whispers to know you, are now only echoes… Found your lost photo, made it fit just right… Now I can look at you, each and every night… Be back before long, to make it better… For now I touch only, my picture frame lover… ~~~~ |

I love the way you framed this poem, Bill. After my first husband died, I found a talking picture frame at Radio Shack and I put his photo in it....but I couldn't get his voice recorded off of any of our videotapes...finally I recorded his old phone message from work (which was still on his work phone) and now every time I want to hear his voice, I hear his phone message ![]() Lyra |

This was very touching and it was a poem that I, like many others it seems, can relate too. |

I like this very much, Bill... and you're right... Whether they're far away and seldom seen or just down the street with only a few hours since parting... a picture lets the eyes focus on the one who fills the heart... and that somehow makes the time until the next meeting better. *S* |
