RESURRECTION
RESURRECTION
Sixteen millimeter memories
smiles frozen in time
ghosts in slow motion
reliving a moment of mortality.
false resurrections
tricks of the mind
suspension of disbelief.
keeping the dead alive

Thanks, Geez. I almost decided to give up writing. I deleted most of those I had written of late.

i hope
that you never give up! We can't always hit a home-run, but if we keep trying, we will a good many!
Again, very well written, reminds me of 'Esker-like' work. Short and to the point of one-thought descriptions.

wow Joe
just wow
i absolutely love this
it is so very emotional, without being so, if that makes sense
the first and last lines say it all, the bit in the middle is descriptive icing
truly, one of the best writes I've seen from anyone
sorry to be gushy, but this really hit my heart
thank you for sharing
love judy

I must agree with the others this is a really, really good poem - uncomplicated honest emotional truth shines out like a beckon.
Ten out of ten. :)
