Moments

Moments

The crocuses bloomed today, the first for Spring 

Beautiful colors 

Visitors today 

walked and played 

the fresh smell of spring and sunlight in her hair 

Today’s “morning – glory” of flowers 

Unfurl into full bloom

Morning glory that hoists the soul

Moments and Windows that can quickly disappear 

Therefore, a moment we fill with joy of living

Overflowing, every bit of daylight used,

Creating Time, knowing that it passes so quickly

Blink and the moment changes to a grand time 

Blink again, and the moment beautifully fades

Windows—much shorter than you care to imagine 

People and relationships that occupy your life.

Moments of leaning

Moments of dreaming

Windows of seeing through joy and energy that gives life

Moments (reel)

Moments, Glimpse poetry by Joe Holuta

About this poem: Moments is a poem about realizing that time can be created to enable moments [windows] that we value and cherish with family and friends. “Specific windows—much shorter than you care to imagine or admit—during which certain people and relationships will occupy your life.” (Sahil Bloom)
