each experience . lasts a moment, memories . can last a lifetime
a stranger arrives . and just as quickly departs . same as time passing
what happens today . might never happen again . for better or worse
for a brief moment . the world lights up with colors . that will soon be lost
as the newborn leaves . flutter in dappled sunlight . nothing else matters
so many moments waiting to be discovered drift by unnoticed
living each moment . as the path unfolds, texture . becomes tangible
we may never know . when it will be the last time . to watch clouds drift by
there is always time . enough to take a moment . and breathe it all in
every moment . has potential for wonder . if we are open
