In the Moment

When tragic strikes the blame game starts,
It would be a miracle if one could just take a moment,
This would help in understanding there is no one to blame but oneself.
With a blink, a wave, a stretch, and a swing things change.
Let’s take a moment to live in the moment.

Work, drama, excuses, doubts only distracts one from the moment.
The pleasure to bring a smile on your face awaits in desperation, 
The pleasure to make a moment be cherished awaits with style,
Then why are you permitting the taunts to take away the moment.

Genuine, passionate, and prosperous is the happiness you deserve,
Let’s sway to the dance of the wind,
Clap with the beat of the tune you hear.

Forgive, forget, and divert the cheeky mind,
Allow the blooming and budding joy fill your heart.

Live in the moment.
