Treasured Moments

Dreams are made of these.
They grow like limbs on trees.

Upon these, the soul must feed
And value the treasured moments produced by seeds.

Planted in fields of yesterdays in the form of deeds.
Such moments are like roses that cannot be rushed.

These moments blossom like love, faith, and trust.
Such moments are heartfelt and deeply rewarding,

Unfolding with certainty from a life filled with giving.
And like true believers, they will never stop living.

These transitory moments like Rome were not built in a day.
When they arrive, we embrace and store them to forever stay.

Moments to die for, giving birth to a gush of happy tears,
rehearsing and appreciating the fruits of laborious years.
