Beauty In A Moment Caught

A moment still and time is kind
In catching breath it’s peace I find

The cattle amble slowly past
Whilst children play in wild grass

Sunlight turns the thirsty crops
To gold with magic as I watch

And suddenly the balance sought
Appears upon a fleeting thought

beautiful to be caught in the moment peaceful serene aware as life spins and wraps itself around you

[R.E. Ray]

This is the true beauty of life, as you portrayed here. It's the snapshots, when the mind and body are free from the noise and busyness of the day, where we can see beauty captured in a rare, peaceful moment. Artfully written and structured, as common in your other works.

A serenely written piece, 'elle......

Your title sums up the poem perfectly. Those little moments when beauty is truly recognised and the clarity of the moment is ingrained forever. They are fleeting and few and far between in this fast paced modern world.

A fine piece.

This is delightful writing. Your short poem conjured up some lovely imagery and emotions. We all need to take moments to stop and gaze at our surroundings. Thank you.

This is everything I love about life & about poetry. So many similar observations can be made about the area I live & love, so I'm picturing every word. LOVE your rhyme & rhythm! Great word choices to convey the lazy pleasure of it all (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Yes the true value of life is relaxing and enjoying the things we cherish come to full circle before our eyes... Thank you for sharing
