Picture Perfect Still

Ten minutes is all it takes:

White sweater thrown over shoulders to conceal
chocolate and grass on a blue ruffled dress.

Girl done.

New shoes bought by grandma worn to hide
a mismatch of blue and black.

Boy done.

Weeping cherry, full blooms at their peak to blur
an imperfect focal point.

Scenery done.

Both children held in lap to cover
a shirt beyond all hope of slap-dash ironing.

Dad done.

Pink floral dress hastily slipped on to camouflage
a few flowering pounds.

Mom done.

Click.
Perfect.
