Brief Moments and then...

A few moments of magic
A special letter
Exciting news
Something special happens
I am excited
A special joy fills me up
I want to share the moments
….in person

Call to a friend
Can we meet for coffee?
Something wonderful to share…
Sorry, can’t…
Call another friend
Can we meet…?
Something wonderful to share…
Sorry, can’t today…
See another friend
Want to share something wonderful…
They are busy with children
Or other people…
Sorry, can we talk later…………

My heart drops
Pain sets in
My spirit cries
I try not to feel sorry for myself
I can barely breathe
The moments disappear
No one to share with…
Then…
Just more moments…
Alone………

IT IS TRUE, ONE CAN MOMENTARILY FORGET THAT THEY ARE NEVER REALLY ALONE...AND BRIEF MOMENTS OF REJECTIONS CAN MAKE ONE LOSE THE BEAUTY OF THE MOMENT. DONE WELL AND ENJOYED. THANKS FOR SHARING. LOVE,

Yes...so many people shut the door to life. How sad and tragic we are living busy lives and no time to visit a friend in need. Thank you for putting it into words what is in my heart.
Namaste, Jo

I so know what you write of, Ann. God has granted me a gift of late. Beyond my comprehension. My poetry speaks of it. Your verses move me to tears. Thank you. Love and peace to you. Regis

I agree with Daniel and you know you have shared those moments with the den. Well done.

Sounds like those people are in too much of a hurry. Too many people are nowadays. I always try to have at least one person to share moments with. Even if it's only by e-mail. Try not to let them go too easily. Someone will be there.
