A Photograph

Updated: Sep 21, 2022


By Pranav Pandya


A great photograph follows no rules

it tells the whole story, in just a heartbeat

a snap is not taken, a story is made

from the split second the camera locks focus,

a visit into an instant dissolved by time




from the heart warming sounds of children playing, to the cacophony of a workshop

the unheard sounds are wondrously played, merely by a glance

the camera does not demand, it quietly requests that moment

and borrows it for all eternity, a pause button to this thing called life

this object, a sequence of dots, broadcasting the past into the future

the camera is a magicians wand, that takes a twinkle and makes it last for ever
