Memory of a moment
I lay here on the ground with eyes closed.
Counting every blessing in my life; appreciating all the small things I’m allowed to have.
Feeling the breeze pass through the fresh cut grass and crease across my skin.
Enjoying the cool fresh air I breathe, the breath of life.
Opening my eyes I see above me the hanging leaves of the willow tree.
Seeing just how green green can be in this life.
They say green is the color of greed; but here it shows just how much life lives.
With the green cut grass, the hanging leaves, rooting into the ground.
******* up all the water into its roots, flowing life through itself.
I can feel the life all around me, living its course.
I sit up and look out off the cliff, to what do my eyes behold?
They look upon the edge of the cliff with flowing water of the sea below.
The sun’s rays gleaming down, reflecting the sapphire glow of the river.
Listening to the birds chirp, with the crashing waves on the shoreline below.
A time like this comes by once in a life time, and you must take time to appreciate.
Appreciate the complete peace in this moment; living in the moment today.
Today is all about taking a memory of the century.
One of those memories that leaves a legacy inside of you.
A time that when you think back to when you could be truly happy, this is what you see.
Time by yourself, so released and free from care.
To be carefree even if it’s just in this moment, a moment that lasts a second to a life time.
This is the truth, this is the memory of a lifetime.
The memory of memories, how sweet it is.
Take a deep breath and breathe it in, allow it to flow through your entire being.
Something so divine like this is from a deity.
This is nothing compared to the spectrum of time but a moment, a second.
This second will last a life time inside of your mind and inside of your heart.
For a time no one can take from you, it only fades with your life.
When will your life…your memory fade?
