iPhone Haiku 1 Break In The Clouds

for a moment

I can pretend

that you are sitting

here with me

I take shots on my mobile not just for reference for my work, but also to show my Dad, as he likes looking at what I get up to during my day, and he enjoys looking at pictures. My Dad has dementia, and he is now in a nursing home. But sometimes, even these ordinary things, these sometimes odd shots, will spark a memory for him.

His face lights up as he remembers.

 

I wondered if I could give these sometimes candid, everyday shots a longer life...then the iPhone Haiku Album was born!

 

This was a rainy day, and I had stopped here for a while, thinking of when we used to walk here.

 

I have paired this work with "Fast Car" by Tracy Chapman. When my Dad was a youngster his first job was as a car mechanic. He likes seeing my car out of his room window even now.
