Fleeting glance…


Like the falling drops of rain

Rolling down my head

Like the moving grains of sand

Rushing down my hand

Like the lashing waves that never return

Washing away my footsteps

Like the breeze that travels along

Touching me and moving on

Like that stroking of the hair

Leaving the heart pounding for more

Like many such things

That just come and go

Time only seems to sprint away

So hold on to it

and don’t let the seconds go

From today....


For all the goodness that survives around

The unnoticed and the upraised

The unsung and the unseen

All that’s needed is a worthy thought

For the sunshine and the rain

The autumn leaves and the winter flakes

We so see everyday

I just want to feel them from today

For the running waters and the settled sand

The still in the air and the moving troughs

We so see everyday

I just want to feel them from today

For the lovely hues and the scented flowers

The buzzing bee and the chirping birds

We so see everyday

I just want to feel them from today

For the tiny deeds and the modest words

The lightest pecks and the huge hugs

We so see everyday

I just want to feel them from today

The smiling faces and the twinkling eyes

The umpteen plans and the late nights

We so see everyday

I just want to feel them form today

For the countless leisure walks by the road

The holding hands and the heart to hearts

We so see everyday

I just want to feel them from today

For the friends and the constant support

The cheers and the shared jokes

We so see everyday

I just want to feel them from today
