Wonderful Old Photos Poem by Marilyn Lott

Wonderful Old Photos

Rating: 3.9


Looking into old boxes
Tucked away in old chests
In the attic or storage rooms
Are treasures I love the best

Grandpa as he once was
Back in his early days
Grandma standing by his side
Her sweet old-fashioned ways

Aunts and uncles and cousins
So many years ago now
Barnyards and hay fields
Photos of a horse and plow

Wouldn’t it be wonderful
If we could see them all again?
Or send a little note
Such greetings we would send

But for now at least we must
Let imaginations flow
Smile as we ponder
Those wonderful old photos!
