A Moment

A Moment

A Poem by Dani California

 

 

 

My heart aches

For a moment

 

A moment 

A mere flicker

In this vastness

Of endless time

 

A moment

To know you

To touch you

To feel you

 

A moment

To see the twinkle

Of love in your eyes

When you look at me

 

A moment

To feel the softness

Of your lips

Pressed gently against mine

 

A moment

To hear your heart

Softly beating love's melody

As it intertwines with my own

 

A moment

To spend a sprinkle

Of eternity

In your arms

 

A moment

When everything

That ever existed

Finally makes sense

 

A moment

When passing stardust

Erases all time

Past, present and future

 

A moment

When the only thing left

And the only thing

That ever truly mattered

 

Was this moment

this was amazing!! it was romantic and heart warming at the same time!!! things can change in just one moment, or you can be filled with more passion than imaginable. This was just so touching...

A moment
When the only thing left
And the only thing
That ever truly mattered

Was this moment

As Michael Crawford & Walle says,,, it only takes one
Life is full of moments just like your poem ...
WHAT A WONDERFUL ENDING & HOW TRUE!!!
Life is a fleeting moment...
THANKS FOR THE REMINDER

Ah, and don't all hearts ache, on some level, for a moment like this?

I love this piece. It's so universal to the deep passion people can feel, and yet it's personal in the way that we can all imagine such a moment as it's happened (or would happen) in our own lives. The most powerful idea is that of the moment transcending everything: time, space, and even thought. I've been here, and the poem makes me appreciate that. Good job.

I know this poem. I lived this poem and you wrote it well. No ... you wrote it perfectly. Mourn for a moment mourn that tiny speck of eternity that was the time you spent with them. That speck of eternity that was all to short.

Sigh!

"A Woman's Heart"

Held close to mine
A woman's sensuality
That of her secret garden
To be loved and not broken

Nourish her with love, embrace her with warmth
Like an early morning sunrise
Looking into the depth of her sweet embrace
Like that of a rose,
The fragrance of her
Womanhood

Opening upon darkness, she will blossom
Flowing into open spaces
Holding you, taking your soul for a dance
Serenading the man she loves
With a song of her own
Through her universe
Of secret gardens

� Arthur Henn 2008

Sometimes all it takes is one special moment to bring love to life and you so captured that type of moment with graceful words... from first to last stanza reading this poem is a very special moment in itself.
