Melissa Knepp Poet Rhyme

The Moment of a Lifetime

A moment in time

That cannot be erased

A memory etched

That won't be replaced

That night I won't forget

And will treasure it forever

To be in your presence

Is a gift I will part with never

I dreamed of this day

For oh so many years

And thought for sure

I would be reduced to tears

And have no words in me

To muster up the strength to say

I would be a puddle

And would have all words locked away

But when I got up to you

And you looked to me with those eyes

I felt so comforted and safe

And in that moment I began to realize

That I could speak to you

And get out what I felt inside

It came out so clear and calmly

And I didn't feel the need to hide

In the back of the crowd

Or remain silent while you there

I simply felt so blessed 

And like you were the answer to a prayer

That I might have the chance 

Just one chance so divine and real

To tell you all the things you have done for me

And the way you have made me feel

And then I got a picture

Which was all I ever hoped for

I couldn't believe it at all

It was everything I wanted and so much more

You took the opportunity

To talk to all of us and let us tell you our story

You then took time to walk with us

And made this night so full of glory

We never thought you would walk

With us down the street

This was so much more amazing

What a way to meet

The one who has inspired us for so long

And given us way more than we could explain

We have loved you for so long

And that love will always remain

Because you showed so much generosity

And beauty and touched us to the core

You gave us such a wonderful memory

That we truly could not ask for more

In this life ever

Beacuse we got the chance to meet you

But you took it beyond the call

You gave us more than we ever bargained for

And we are so grateful for it all

If we could replay the moment over

We would rewind it again and again

Its one of those moments we will cherish

Until our lifetime's end
