  A Moment’s Turning

   The forest path
     ahead
  disappears into
  the setting sun,
  behind, it fades
  in the gathering
  moonlight;
  here past and
  future meet
  out of time…
  galaxies,
  planets,
  seasons,
  lives,
  loves,
  hopes,
  and
  dreams
  all turning…
  on this moment.

Secondhanddreampoet,

This works well. I think that's true of every moment.

Humming a tune, as this moment turns within and without, binding past and present to the future.

I just love this write, which again makes me think of TS Eliot's line about "the still point of the turning world", "where the dance is."
