Moments
"Momentary moments make memorable memories"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oh! These sweeping moments passing quickly,
they are the life verily.
A moment may seem insignificant and small,
but it is the most significant of all.
Everything happens in a moment,
to fall in love, it takes just few moments,
hearts break, within few moments,
alive this moment, dead next moment.
Some moments are magical,
the first kiss, a magical moment,
height of intimacy, when two become one, another magical moment,
sperm meeting egg, a magical moment,
first glance of your new born child, again a magical moment.
Some moments are beautiful,
sunrise, sunset, fog kissed mountains, colourful clouds, rainbow...
Some momentary acts have deep impact,
the moment a fall happened,
the moment driver was careless,
the moment of uncontrolled anger...
A momentary thought can change life,
momentary desire pursued relentlessly crafts success stories,
momentary negative thought mulled over, can lead to suicide.
Thoughts entertained every moment,
decides life and happiness.
Only when mind is in the present moment,
you actually live that moment,
otherwise it's a life of illusion,
akin to a life not lived at all.
Moment after moment,
a beautiful life gets created,
it is best lead moment by moment.
Life is short, moments are precious,
don't idle away your moments, precious.
Live every moment such that,
if life were to end this moment,
you will have no regrets even for a moment.
