I never knew you
but somehow I feel I love you-
which sounds woo woo strange, yet is true.
you were the Fred Rogers of fashion photography
—the whole fashion industry, if I’m being honest—
and we are all the better for you having lived.
with your film cameras
file cabinets
blue jackets
and bikes,
I hold your essence
and your giant sunshine smile
inside my heart.
may I be lucky enough to reflect back
even
just a little bit of your
unabashed joy
for living.
“It’s as true today as it ever was…
he who seeks beauty, will find it.”
thanks, Bill
L.S. 2022
It is love that remains.
