Let There Be Now

If there be no other joy in life
Let there be now for all;
The ever trembling moment
Of life, love and joy we will recall.

Let there be friends a’plenty
Who are never far away;
Those who would fill life so
With support and joy each day.

Let there be beauty all around
On the earth, and in the sky,
Let life be abundant in the moment
Placed in our memory to never die.

Let there be love for a lifetime
To be borne on one long thrill,
Happiness scattered across the moments
To appease the soul’s hunger with its fill.

Let the wind song in the trees
Play a tune of sweet surprise
Of music, sounds, colors, and smells
Accompanying every wonderful sunrise.

Let there be now
Forever and a day
With yesterday never ending
And all eternity crowded into a moment
That will never end,
Will never be forgotten…

Let there be now!

I see you understand the power of "now"...staying in the moment and relishing it's worth...This is so well written and brought me back to a place I had briefly forgotten...Thank you...

Jeanette,
This is wonderful.
This is the kind of affirmation we all would be well to commit to memory.

Some of your phrasing brings back memories and lifts my soul:
...the ever trembling moment
...the wind song in the trees
...a moment that will never end

And, of course, your title itself: Let there be now!

When Christmas comes, Jeanette, I want you for my Santa Claus 'cause
you always seem to bring the perfect gift for me.

Love,
Richard
