Photo's in my album

There's pictures from last summer
of John and James sound asleep
Sunday morning at the camp-out
they're memories I'll always keep

and of playing softball with a broomstick
which of course, James busted
Andy told him to bring a new one
it was James he shouldn't have trusted

another picture of James
this one with the bird
the one that hit him in the head
that's a story that everyone heard

then last years new year's eve party
let me tell you, that was fun
it wasn't like the others
i was happy when it was done

Zach didn't know i had a camera
when he put that armor on
he had a sword fight with ray
i think that's one he won

there's a picture of me and ray
it wasn't like all the rest
we wanted the time to last
but i guess we didn't pass that test

there's more from this summer
at this years camp-out
there's the giant frog Stephen caught
you should have heard the little ones shout

one of John and James boxing
that was an interesting time
the advice the guy gave James
wasn't worth a dime

a picture of Jonathan
on the bike made for two
we road around the lake
we were bored, we didn't know what else to do

another from the camp-out
one of John without a shirt
i told my cousin I'd get it
who knows how that worked

they're now just photos in my album
and memories in my head
I'll never forget the things they did
or anything they said

--this one is to all my friends at church. i love you guys!!
--it still needs a little work. and suggestions would be nice.

    I like how this one painted a nice summer picture in my head. Nothing to suggest, I like it very much.

    This line made me laugh:

    "one of John and James boxing
    that was an interesting time
    the advice the guy gave James
    wasn't worth a dime"

    Let me guess......

    James didn't feel so manly afterwards? Haha...

    It needs work? No, I don't think so. It's perfect....It flowed so well and was so filled with emotion. Writing about past memories especially ones you so enjoyed is easy...in reading this it seems as though the words came to you with no problem. It seems as though it was very easy for you to write as it didn't struggle with rhyme or flow at all. So nicely done.
