Moments

In the breeze, on my board, music blasting and I miss it…

                I miss the beauty around

                The sun setting lower

                The ripples in water

                The goose and the gander

                In the noise, the beauty’s unfound

In the breeze, on my board, music off and I see it…

                I see the beauty around

                The sun setting lower to crisp orange skies

                The ripples in water with fish splashing surprise

                The goose and the gander shimmying by

                In the stillness, beauty is found

My morning walk in the brisk with a podcast and I miss it…

                I miss the tranquil peace

                The breaking of dawn

                The air crisp and calm

                The robin’s song

                In the noise, tranquility doth cease

My morning walk in the brisk, with the podcast off and I find it…

                I find the tranquil peace

                The breaking of dawn in brilliant hues

                The air crisp and calm creating a muse

                The robin’s song to a heavenly tune

                In the stillness, lives tranquil peace

In my home, in the past with busyness the task and I missed them…

                I missed some special moments           

The pitter patter

                The friendly chatter

                The things that matter

                In busyness, I met my greatest opponent

In my home, in the past, that I can never take back, perhaps you will find it…

                Find those special moments

                The pitter patter of little feet running by

                The friendly chatter of a child’s delight

                The things that matter most in life

                It is in stillness that memory preserves life’s special moments
