Our Moment

We’re living life, a breath at a time, Not really seeing, or listening Ne’er, in our moment, our minds jumping ahead Unaware of all around us, we’ve miss it instead No Milky-way, no Aurora Borealis, no evening stars No firefly glows, to delight us No moonbeams, to guide our way Take a breath Our moment we’re in, is all that we’ve got Presence, in our moment, required To see the Sunkist flowers, clouds, rain, and the sun All there, if we stay in our moment, to see and feel Our moment, once alive, now gone, unable to be relived Alas! Look what we have lost Take a breath Fore, if not there, in our moment, we’ve let it slip by That moment, that breath, that keeps us alive Gone forever, with no Sunkist flowers smelled, no rain on our faces No Sunkist trees, with sunlit glows, no sunrise; no sunset No sweet fragrances of nature Take a breath Our moment, one, leading to another and another Are we to ignore what we’ve learned, from the loss of the last? If not, our precious moment, becomes elusive and goes away Our moment, given to us; ours to take Take a breath Be in each moment wherever we are Looking forward to the next, keeps us happy and true Be in our moments; build memories old and new Preserve our minds and souls Take a breath; another moment has come
