One Moment
~*~
One moment
that’s all I asked for.
Instead I got years,
that turned to fleeting memories.
Just like the love song
said it would,
the kiss, the eyes
became forever.
The curtains change,
but the blinding sun still stares
at the old rocking chair
that pounds the wooden floor.
It knows it’s tracks well,
and Like a child I clutch remembrance
to my breast,
singing an old love song
holding it close,
like a warm teddy bear.
One moment,
really, that’s all I asked for.

(big hugggssssss) Oh Debra, this is so very sad, sweet friend, yes, always hug those memories like a teddy bear and I hope now you have found a new true love song! (sigh) This is heartfelt, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Debra, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

BloomingRose - I also can only express the haunting of this write. One moment, not a lot to ask for, not a lot....
