This minute.
This second.
I want to hold it
To cherish it
To have it help me
Contain my life
To help me
Contain the gifts
I have not deserved
But accept gratefully
The moment.
The breath.
This breath.
Forever
Amen
But to all good things
An end
Must come
So be it
Amen... again
I can live with that
I guess
But I would rather not

Hi Tom,
Yes, to live and breathe, this moment, cherishing every gift, can be everything. Thank you for the reminder!
Yes thank you for your comment Annie. Certainly, at my age it gets easier to lose focus on the moment. But now its already passed as my fingers are just too slow on these keys and my memory of, whatever it was, just keeps getting shorter and shorter...
