I hold a camera in my hand.
My eyes are exploring
in every path, in search of
re-inventing art.

I finally discover the memory
I've been longing to keep.

A blue baseball cap,
old Levi jeans,
and sun-kissed hair.
You stand still
and seize my stare.

Looking straight into
the lens
a smile appears.
I capture
the perfect picture.

the picture doesn't match the poem, but anything can be a perfect picture if it means something to you.

Yes! It's just finding that picture to take and then finding this perfect picture of this guy who is wearing a blue baseball cap, levi jeans and hair that was golden when the sun shined on his head and it was like sun kissed.

I love this poem. So your perfect picture was a guy with a blue baseball cap, had levi jeans and had sun kissed hair, I love that part.
