~Please Take A Moment~ ( Free Verse) Please,take just a moment To breath in deep, the fresh air To smell sometimes all the roses That you may find or see on your way Pause,take just ....a moment Spare just a minute of your time, Don't take anything more for granted Smell the coffee,sit back and relax Look again,to all the beauty around you Enjoy sometimes, all the view Get in touch with God and the real you, Waste no more time life is too short, just for that.

Life is short to make us happy but extremely long to make us unhappy my dearest friend, Dorian, and for that reason, the advise your beautiful poem offers, is so valuable!

A lovely sentiment with great advice to take our time to appreciate the little things in life that mean so much. I know that poets do notice these things, and why we need poetry in our lives as well Dorian.

"Pause, take just ....a moment" great line, Dorian...silence is quickly becoming extinct in modern society...we have evolved with eyelids to close our sight... by not ear lids ...because hearing is essential...true silence is an awareness of natural sounds...may your new year be filled with such moments! jimbo

Hi Rajat! Thank you so much for stopping by and for your very kind and awesome comment. Much appreciate it and you of course. Yes, the problem is life sometimes can get so hectic and we hardly have time to enjoy it much less to relax. That goes for me too sometimes don't know when to stop doing stuff, lol...Wish you a very lovely day! Take care! :) Love and hugs! xxx D.

Very well said, Dorian. Maybe we have already wasted too much time in life, and although it's not easy to make up for lost time, we can at least enjoy what there is available. Have a lovely day! // paul
