A father finds a dusty photograph

From a shoebox owned by his father, now long passed

His twelve year old daughter already has little time too

“Have you got a minute Emma?”

Fragile, faded photographs

Rarely printed, forgotten

Lost in oceans, space and time

“This one looks interesting, sit down if you can…”

“This is how they lived off the land

See how nature was cut, polluted, wasted

They had no idea of harmony, connection

A dark time….primitive.”

“Daddy I see something else

I see light…

I see hope…”

His head turns

Between a smile and a tear

Another hour passes.
