MOMENTS by Joanne Boyle

"MOMENTS"
by Joanne Boyle

Collecting Moments.

Today I collected moments

and put them in my pocket.

I then collected hope,

and put it in my locket.

I chose a moment for a blessing,

to pass on to another.

A gift of ever after,

from a father to a mother.

I picked a time of togetherness,

in case It's something I need.

I held on to generosity,

to overcome my greed.

I planted future moments,

like flowers that will grow.

I'll dig them out some time,

once the seeds do sew.

I'll give a moment to a friend,

and hope it brings a smile,

a one to look back on

every once in a while.

I'll wrap some up in love

and give them as a gift,

to be unwrapped at any time

that spirits need a lift.

I'll give moments to my family,

enough for them to measure,

the value of our memories,

is a priceless treasure.

My moments are my riches.

They are all I have to give,

and I shall treasure each one,

for as long as I shall live.
