Moments

Moments

Occupy your moments…
There is no life in dreams.
There is no touch in the future,
No laughter in tomorrow,
No smell in what may be.
Life is the moment!!!
The Now!!
The past is only a memory,
Good or bad it does not live.
The future only a hope not yet realized.
Occupy your moments…
Savor the present,
Touch what you can while you are here,
Hear the song of today,
Smell the flower before you go.
Occupy your moments…
You will not be coming back.
Life is a one way journey lived one moment at a time.
Fill the moment with your presence,
See all there is to see.
Hold on to what is worthy.
Grasp the noble.
Take from the moment what is eternal…
Love.
