    Life's Moments

    Precious moments,
    how they pass in the blink of an eye,
    Like a raindrop's decent from the clouds in the sky.
    Quickly forgotten, once its splash hits the ground,
    Like so many moments whose importance has drowned.
    Experiences deemed bad seem to shadow all good,
    Always stressing imperfections
    so much more than we should.
    Frustrations and disappointments ring clear in our minds.
    Happiness and joy are too easily left behind.
    Searching for that perfect moment becomes our soul obsession,
    instead of relishing every moment without perilous regression.

    that is a very nice poem.

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
