Precious Moments Last, but a Moment

A moment that ‘is’ may soon turn to a moment that ‘was.’

Warbler’s singing a tune.

Listen ‘now,’ as she may sing a different song or not…next moment.

 

The Sun rays ‘re piercing through space between railings.

Natural light’s causing a geometrical design of shadows on the deck.

See ‘now,’ as new shapes may alter this place in the next few moments.

 

Dew drops ‘re falling from leaves.

Witness the magic ‘now,’ or risk waiting a whole day, a full night and

only maybe, get to gaze at them, next morning.

 

A tiny leaf’s dancing while the rest of its tree stands still.

Focus ‘now,’ as winds may change course and shift things out here.

 

Capture these moments in the lens of your eyes, and forever imprint them in your minds and hearts.

Precious moments last but a moment.
