"OLD PICTURES"
by- Patsy Jo Reed Sircy LIFE's STREAM, the MEMORY trip, a million MILEs, Some Lady's HAT, the Children's SMILES; The little known, the tried and true, BELL BOTTOMs and TIE knots, the OCEANs blue. In old SAN JUAN, off GIBALTRA's shore, In GIANT REDWOODs' shadows, at play, and more; In a RUFFLED DRESS at a PIGPEN's edge, A Colorado LAD who dares the LEDGE. All the FAR-OFF SIGHTs my eyes can't see; Came HOME today in your GIFT to me! That naught be lost at a GENERATION's turn, I will SAVE and PASS all the things I LEARN; OLD PICTUREs and LOVE in a treasured stack, Black and white, over shoulder, from UNCLE's back!! 19 OCT. 1997 IMO Virgil Garrison, US Navy photographer, husband of my aunt Ruth Nelson REED
