Poem: "Framed by the Film"

This poem was written outside the regular prompt calls. It fills the "camera" square in my 11-1-21 card for the NCIS Bingo fest. This poem has been sponsored by a pool with [personal profile] fuzzyred, [personal profile] ng_moonmoth, [personal profile] janetmiles, and [personal profile] edorfaus.


"Framed by the Film"


A camera catches time,
pressing it like rosepetals
between the pages of a book.

Each moment is captured
by the click of the shutter
and framed by the film.

A camera is the clearest piece
of timebinding technology,
because it alone preserves
precisely what the eye has seen.

It fills each photo albums
with memories made visible.

A camera goes hand in hand
through the years, a friend
who never forgets.
