A Snapshot in Time
by Joe Holuta
Vital snapshots that fix our lives
Bridging the gap of distance and time
Standing together in early life
Tying together
against the breaking waves
Withstanding life’s challenges together, forever vital
The struggle faced straight on
New memories that recall
old memories of resilience
encouragement moving forward
similarity, generations, lifetimes.
Love fixes, our hearts, our minds
Wind, gust the lamentable away
Straining the good, a net
Remnant, salt from the ocean’s
water on glass
Sunshine and water glimmer
Faces and smiles bright
Grasping the bonnet that covers and
The net that holds fast
against any threat of loss
