Moments

Moments - Chantelle Smith (26 September 2025)

Moments can be magical 
and some quite mementos.
Moments can be dramatic,
and the quite uneventful. 
 
Its moments that make the world go round
Incredibly fast or awfully slow.
Moments may pass by and pass on, 
and some may come and never leave,
Never really moving on. 

There are moments of laughter,
and there are moments of pain.
Moments of love and moments of hate. 
Words said in a moment,
you wish you could erase
and then there are moments
you wish would stay. 

Moments of stillness,
there are those moments too. 
What was your last moment,
what moment are you going through?

As someone said tomorrow is not promised
So today, lets live our moments in the present
living fully, in each and every one.
