They slip right through your fingers Precious moments that breath Enlightenment, compassion, insight Inspiration, melancholy, bravery Feelings so real and spectacular They whisper with a gentle appeal Emotions discovered in a scent A touch, a frown, a laugh, a light Emotions filled with love and hope Musical notes of faith that flows Through the veins that are flaming Burning away all dread and pain These moments come alive and survive The days of darkness and distress They offer rays of happiness And prayers of faithfulness Found within a smile Lighting the eyes The moment when a tear falls Bouncing softly against naked flesh Filling the heart with emotional angst The moment when the scent awakens A heart to the aroma of freshness Experienced after the rain falls The moment when a flower opens it’s petals Giving way to a bloom so fresh and impressive Expressing joy that is such a brilliant treasure The moment when you awake and feel The warmth that holds such an appeal When you are breathing the air of dawn The moment when the scent of freshly mown Grass erases all smell of the winter past Which wishes to bring out its dismal twist The moment when crackling leaves are gone And the winter comes through the morn To beckon to the spirit with a killing frost The moment when love is there on a face Welcoming you into a sweet embrace Where you feel so loved and accepted The moment when you’ve read a great poem And nothing feels more important Than sharing it with your best friend It is this moment – when joy rides the wind That you’re free to believe in the senses Who bring such inspirational completion With blessings, I wish you more moments To complete you!

We often do not know how precious they are until they become "how precious they were".
