congrats on having this poem selected as 'Poem of the day! ' It's a beautiful poem.
The image held a message you needed to come across. A piece in the puzzle.
This is a fine poem. I loved your rhyme scheme. Although I can see why you need it, the word 'fledged' always has to do with birds and/or feathers. But my dictionary is old. Very good.
Not only did I enjoy the imagery of this poem, but also the style and the words; who deserve being read out loud with slow pronunciation. The rhyme make the words as tasty and exciting as the journey you took us on.
Always we find old is gold. Such old photos bring to our memory the thoughts afresh of those good old days. A poem well composed.
Filled with so much imagery that it actually brings the reader into someones attic with a haze between the cobwebs, and sun trying to shine in a dirty window with an old picture that has captured your heart... Absoluty one of the best I have heard in some time, this trully moved me dear...... EXCELLENT! ! ! A 10! !
Love it! Yes, I truly do, your little picture as your poem, too.
I feel happy, a perfect one, thanks.
