Moments Revisited It only took a moment, for my fear to fly ~ it only took a moment, Dad was by my side. It only took a moment for him to calm me down, it only took a moment to turn a smile from frown. It only took a moment plus a hug or two ~ it only took a moment to bond to him like glue. It only took a moment for him to give me “winks.” It only took a moment… …makes you stop and think. It only takes a moment to make a moment best ~ it only takes a moment for you to pass this test. Do you take the moment? Are you so inclined? To make each moment special in your own child’s mind? 2 February, 2000 ©KRJ Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Excellent writing! Often times, it is those moments we take time for that we remember as being most special. This poem is a wonderful message. DH |

Danny, thank you for taking a "moment" to read and see the message. The "excellent" is making me smile. Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Love your poems. Don't have any children of my own, but I treasure every second with my three godchildren - and I hope I make a deep impression on them too. Look forward to reading more of yours!! |

Great name, Jascanvey - and I am sure that if you know you are doing well with your Godchildren, they will carry your imprint for all of their lives, exactly what I meant. So glad you are enjoying this site, and my work. Thank you. Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Pepper, that you "sat and reflected" is perhaps one of the best compliments I have ever received. Thank you. Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |

Sunshine: Super message here and yes, I think I made the most of those moments, hope so anyway.. HUGS The grape passes through the press to yield wine. Your life must pass through the press of passion and pain to yield the wine of wisdom.. |

Sunshine, I loved this! I can remember those moments with my parents'. I try to do the same for my kids'. It's hard to see them from my point of view though. Hope someday my kids will call me and tell me of their moments when I made a difference in their lives.Thanks for the great read! -SEA |

SEA, those are exactly the feelings I wanted to convey. Yes, chances are, your kids will tell you this very thing someday. Sunshine Look, then, into thine heart, and write ~~~ Henry Wadsworth Longfellow |
