The Power of Photos: A Haiku

Photos have the ability to evoke emotions in the person who is viewing them

I love looking through old photo albums when I feel nostalgic.

Photos have the power to evoke memories that stir up feelings and emotions.

I have been an avid photographer throughout my life and have diligently assembled countless photo albums of our family’s milestone moments, everyday memories, and travel experiences.

Looking through old photos periodically helps you appreciate life.

In conclusion, I will let you reflect on the following quote by Aaron Siskind:

“Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever… It remembers little things, long after you have forgotten everything.”

This haiku is in response to Being Known’s writing prompt by Galit Birk, PhD. Thank you for inspiring us with your wonderful pieces.

I was also inspired by this heartfelt poem by Jimmy Misner Jr..

I challenge the following writers to participate and share their own haikus: pockett dessert, Pene Hodge, Vidya Sury, Collecting Smiles, and Fiza Ameen. All of you are wonderful writers and I look forward to reading your haikus if you choose to participate.
