Little Moments
Two hearts flutter
When they cross paths
One a silent prayer
The other sputtering
Only can only gasp"
"I need a miracle
She said to the
Moon high above
Let him see me now
Let him be my love
A swollen mound
Covered with
Four hands and hearts
Pounding nervously
A kick, A nudge
Their tears threaten to shed
A pain rips through
The growing silent show
"Let her be with us
Let us greet her now"
A stage set for
Accomplishments
Caps and gowns a flair
Her eyes shine brightly
To the crowd, where
she hopes to see them wave
Let them see me now
Let them see and be proud
A New Year's Day
And night in hospice
Hourly we pray
To ease a passing promised
Her eyes shut tight
Leaking years
A silent plea
"Let me go now
With her I must be"
One hundred one
Years now passed her by
Surrounded by the family
They long shared
A smile graces lips dry
Clasped her fingers
To the Lord she shouts
"Let him see me now
Let me be with you"

Hopefully not too sad, about little moments in our lives we like to share or be with someone else.
