Foto Friday - Yellow



Neglect
is a cold cracked wall
with peeling paint
tucked in a corner
where the sun doesn’t shine.

Memories
are the flowers
along the wall
left behind to languish
when you move on

Nostalgia
is the wistful desire to return
to repair and repaint that wall
and cultivate those flowers.

It only takes a drop of ink to make a million people think. There are many stories.

I love the wall the way it is but would love to see it at its best.

I love all the detail of your photo, and the narrative makes it even more interesting.

I like the picture, the fence and the poem. Thanks, Lee.

Hi Poet,

The pillars are at the nursing home where my mum stays in Taiping. What you see is a school field.
