A Brief Moment in Time



Speeding to airport on way to meeting  
car skidded on highway, somersaulted
landed in ditch, wheels whirling 
plopped there, unscathed, stunned, calm, what next ? 
Miraculously CAR LIFTED ITSELF 
back onto road, continued to airport
arrived safely at meeting, EXALTED

[Poet’s Note : Moment happened whilst
working for a National Educational NGO,
having to travel regularly to various cities to oversee projects __

Wow...talk about a life changing moment. Whether physically or mentally. Glad it turned out the way it did. You captured this very vividly in your poem. Well done, Ghairo.
