Cleaning the cupboard this morning, I glance upon some old albums. Since the onset of digital cameras, the old pictures simply have been lying inside for a long time. Glad to have some leisure time at hand, I decide to walk down the memory lane with the many photo albums. Wiping off the fine layer of dust settled on them, I sit back to enjoy the journey ,which house a treasure trove of memories.
Flipping the pages of the album
I watch beautiful memories unfold
the sounds of joy come alive
I am lost in nostalgia
of perfect moments captured
for eternity!
In response to Colleen’s poetry challenge # 50, Voice & Watch
Alluring lines Radhika! So well written! This reminds me to spend some time with my photo albums today… no digital picture replaces the joy from a real photo❤️😊

I am also from the old school Divya. I still prefer the traditional mode of photography compared to the digital one. Do spend some time with your albums. It’s truly refreshing 😇
