Life's Wonderful Moments

Waking up and smelling the aroma off fresh Brewed coffee. Smelling Warm Artisan bread baking, and preparing to eat. Biting into perfectly baked Pizza so crusty to taste. Enjoying your favorite Turkey dinner in a warm baste. Falling asleep while listening to sounding falling raindrops. Seeing a surreal scenic view high above a mountain top. Gifting meals to the Homeless, seeing a smile, from a good deed. The joy of your first born graduating with Masters degree. I am sure you can share your life's Wonderful moments. Please share in your comments below. Michael Tor

Wow, I can relate to those experiences… my friend! My favorite experience is wakng to the joy of another day! We assume when we go to bed, that there will be a tomorrow? That is not true, at any age! So that is my overwhelming favorite))) To open my eyes and realize that God had given me another day to experience life in all its glory. Pangie xx

A smashing write, Michael. I have two favourite moments each day… finally sitting to quietly enjoy my morning coffee which I’d made before a string of other morning chores and finally having the lounge to myself, so late in the night, to pick up my tablet and write ;-)

Two wonderful moments to enjoy Terry. I'm with you on both of them especially the coffee. Thanks for stopping by my friend and for sharing some of your loves to do...

This is so nice, Michael. My wonderful memories are from over 8 years ago before a doctor's advised drugs for my bones ruined my enjoyment of eating food and just standing up and moving around!

Most Drs do not know anything about nutrition which is the key ingredient to good health. The were indoctrinated with the Rokefeller take over of Medicinal Protocol.I too think back when I was healthier and wish I could go back in time... God bless you Andrea and heal you completely. Hugs...

So sorry Dear Andrea you should Sue him for the pain and suffering he caused in your life with their destructive medicines that they peddle to people with promises of a non proven cure or betterment. These pharma companies make drugs with death causing, pain causing, side effects. Sadly so many of us trust these Moronic Drs that treat you with drugs instead of finding the cause of the problem.

I really loved reading this lighthearted poem, how beautifully you've described the lil moments in life which bring happiness and peace to your heart...I love being in the aura of my mum and dad, spending meaningful time with their love. Also, it gives me much joy if I'm able to spread even a sparkle of kindness that floats to different shores ~ especially, reflecting upon my soul in silence, truly is healing. It was so great to read your words today and they were much needed.. Sending light!

Hello Hiya. First of all thank you for your much appreciated comment. Your comment reflects your love for your parents. You must have wonderful parents. I also had wonderful parents and sadly they have gone up to heaven. I miss them everyday. Treasure your parents and spend as much time as you can with them. Thank you so much for stopping by and thank you for sharing your thoughts....

Ahh! I can relate to all those moments related to food and drink which bring back pleasant memories. We used to go to a nursing home once a month and we would take something with us to give to those who came to the service we did(singing, a spiritual message, etc.) and it was so much joy to see the happiness on their faces when they sang with us and they got the treat in the way of food that we would bring. We would take like a box of tangelos or bananas something that would be good for them. SK

Sara such a nice gesture you did for the nursing home patients. I am sure you touched many lives there with your kind deeds. Bringing happiness to others, and blessing their lives by sharing food and singing uplifting songs for them was a great example of looking out for others. God bless you for doing so.

Helping a child that is all alone, seeing their beautiful little smile. Greeting a lost dog, wondering down the street, meeting it with a bowl water dish ... that tail a waggling. Seeing the relief on the faces of loved ones when the doctor says, " your dad's going to be okay." I enjoy your poem today, my friend. Write On! Bill

Michael Tor

Hi Bill. Those are wonderful examples of wonderful moments. We just rescued a feral cat so I can relate to you with the greeting a lost dog example. I am so glad you enjoyed the poem. God bless you and I will see you soon...

What a wonderful write. I love to hear birds singing or falling raindrops. Giving is what life is about. Put a smile on a face/give them a happy day. Can not wait to read your next write... Have a very blessed week writing away...................

Michael Tor

Paula you are so kind with your words. God bless you you and Lin share the sounds of Birds, that is a popular moment for probably many. God is so great to give us birds to sing to us, fulfilling a passion within us. Wow he knew we would love their sounds. Thank you for sharing Dear Paula, blessings your way....

Hi Michael. I will return your comments to wonderful things... I enjoy being awake before sunrise and listening to songbirds serenading me until the sun colors the earth and the world is still hushed. Good thoughts like yours are needed for a bit of serenity.

Michael Tor

Hi Lin, love your comment to know what your wonderful moment is. So poetic how you share it. Your words are so elegant as you described the songbirds serenading you. Lovely comment. That would be so great to experience. Thank you for stopping by and God bless you...

Hi Michael. Yes I can agree with these great moments you and you are now my precious poet, for in your comments today,,I mean, you are fearless in speaking truth. This is my favorite kind of poet .For once ….a poet was unafraid to put their nose flat against harsh reality without equivocation, here is anew book, for you..AFTER THE POGROM..TO STAND WITH ISRAEL NOT WITH THE KILLERS. that is what you see in the streets.. there is a myopic vision of Israel. Jews are seen with contempt. Pangie

Michael Tor
Date: 10/6/2024 1:57:00 PM

Thank you Pangie both of us love the human race and we are both passionate about telling the truth as we see it. There is too much hatred in this world, and things must change to have peace and love on this earth. Thanks again for your much appreciated comment...Protect Israel at all cost and will look forward to finding this book you mentioned.

Being with my pretty girl on a warm soft beach. Enjoying a good healthy breakfast. Praying to my God. These and more. Good stuff Michael

Michael Tor

Thank you Tom for sharing your wonderful moments. Nothing like enjoying a healthy breakfast. My version of a breakfast might not be as healthy as yours. Pancakes with real maple syrup from Vermont. Crispy smoked bacon, two eggs over easy and home fries. How's that for healthy, lol. I am sure yours has fruit and is more nutritious. Thank you for swinging by. Blessings your way...
