Favorite Photo
A mother chases her
toddler who runs
across the front lawn.
The scene is captured
in a photograph.
Years later, the former
toddler looks through
a box of old pictures.
She remembers the one
of the chase scene,
which is a favorite.
She notices several
other photos in which
someone seems to be
holding her in place.
She never has been
able to settle down.
The prompt for this poem was to choose a memory to write about.
