Every moment in time
Every hour
Every second
Is special

We try and capture everything
Some ones first step
A birthday party
We can't remeber everything

So we take a picture


A piture is frozen
A piece of time
captured
A memory saved

This is why we take pictures
We grow old and die
A picture lasts forever
For the next generation to see

In this way we all will live forever

Hey There -
This was an interesting piece. I really liked it -
But I have a few comments to make.

Firstly - the beginning has a wonderful little rhythm going - like a river it follows a current. But somewhere along the way, that rhythm is dropped... I'm not sure if perhaps you were doing that for effect?...

There are some lovely tidbits of imagery and imagination here. I liked the
A memory saved
A fragment of the past

part especially, but I think maybe some more comparisons could be used... As the reader ,who is curious and hungry for detail, I want you to paint a picture for me. I want to know whats happening and why, and while this introduces me to it - like a once upon a time, theres no filler , no story...
That's just my opinion - doesnt make it fact.

Keep working, star12 - this is the start of something wonderful.
Best Regards -

I agree with IamHathor, I think this needs more, its kind of an introduction waiting for the story to explain it.

I like the beginning of this but toward the middle it seems like this is just a list, well to me. I think with some work and adding to this this can be really great! :)

Sorry I couldn't help more

Russets and tangerine shades of old gold flushing the very outside edge of the senses ... deep shining ochres, burnt umber and parchments of baked earth—reflecting on itself and through itself, filtering the light.
