Within Every Picture Is a Story
Silent motion pictures for no one to hear,
Roaring 1922 was the magical year,
Chaplin's fancy mustache grew from ear to ear.
How can motion without sound express love or fear?
Still frames unexposed to the light,
fame within names
cheers within fright.
Til this day a movie screen provides laughter and sadness.
A comedic love story that has to end tragic.
The negative of any captured moment can have a positive feel.
The story may be fictional, but the moments are real.
