Transitory

Our lives on this earth are brief.

We experience life with our senses.

These precious moments in time

are fleeting.

We see things that elicit awe,

and for those few seconds,

we are transfixed--holding our breath.

We know these events won't last....

File that beauty, love, scent, touch and sound

inside your soul,

to keep for eternity.

What stories do we share?

What do we cling to in old age,

sickness, or at the feet of death?

Just these kinds of moments.

Love your time on earth.

Regret nothing, even loss.

Experience each of the moments that

materialize before you.

These gifts.
