> Mom said, "They are your relatives,"
> But that was long ago.

> She used to get the album out
> And put me on her knee:
> Then pointing, with a story line
> Tell family history.

> The captions used were all her own,
> Each time developed new.
> We never thought to write them down
> Before her life was through.
>
> I see some family features now:
> I have begun to care.
> Since Mom is gone, I cannot ask,
> "Whose picture is that there?"
>
> If you have photo's in a book
> Without a caption, too.
> Go get a pen and label them,
> Or you may wonder, "Who?"
