One Second for Eternity
I snapped a cell phone photo of my dad.
He wore his smile much like a favorite sweater—
A little ragged and a little sad,
But nothing felt—or fit him—any better.

Your words direct my thoughts to my own peaceful and nostalgic imagery. The sweater metaphor reads well for me, with the particular aptly chosen words you've used. Whether trite, or lengthy, your poems are always a delight. It is good to see you here, David. GD
