PICTURE DAY SMILE
John Soeder
© 2014

I haven’t seen you in forever
Sorry to see you've left us far too soon
A name in the paper
A face in a yearbook
The amber of memory

I can’t say
I really knew you well
But I knew you well enough
For a little while
When I close my eyes
When I close my eyes
I can picture
Your picture day smile

Lined up in our Sunday best
From A to Z
Wait for the photographer
To call our names
Watch the birdie
Say “cheese”
Keep the comb
It’s complimentary
What price immortality

Leisure suits with collars a mile wide
We were just kids
But we had style
When I close my eyes
When I close my eyes
I can picture
Your picture day smile

Leisure suits with collars a mile wide
We were just kids
But you can’t deny
We had style
Close my eyes
When I close my eyes
I can picture
Your picture day smile

I can’t say
I really knew you well
But I knew you well enough
For a little while
When I close my eyes
When I close my eyes
I can picture
Your picture day smile
