The Old Photograph
Two little girls,
sitting on a wall.
Are they twins?
No, but inseparable in their twinkly mischief.
Closer than pages in a book
but books can burn
and tragically
those once thought to be identical
became opposites.
Meg, Llanbrynair
It captures both intimacy and fragility in a compact, memorable way. It’s the poem’s emotional hinge.

I love the term ‘twinkly mischief’ I can see them now and feel the tragedy of changes weighing down on them.
