Cradling the moment means hold tight to see and feel the pure delight. It comes and goes in blink of eye; so soon that moment says goodbye. No matter what that moment be, embrace it softly, lovingly, and let the thief of time stand still a little longer...hold the thrill. Then it will rest inside your mind… the sheltered place where you will find that cradled moment rocked to sleep... may stir as memory from deep. But, memory's a filmy thought to wake, but never should be sought replacing present joy that sings... thrills cradling the moment brings. Sandra M. Haight ~4th Place~ Premiere Contest: Cradling the Moment Sponsor: Julia Ward Judged: 07/07/2016

A well constructed poem, but a little lacking in interest this time. Well done for its inclusion in the five, though.
