Seeing Life's Little Moments

Amid the rush, the endless race,

small moments linger, soft with grace.

A child’s laugh, a fleeting smile,

a sunbeam resting for a while.

The scent of rain on thirsty earth,

the quiet joy of morning’s birth.

A feather drifting, free and light,

the stars that whisper in the night.

A hand that brushes close to mine,

the taste of fruit, so sweet, divine.

The gentle hum of wind through trees,

the calm of waves, the salt-swept seas.

How often do these moments pass,

like shadows flickering on the glass?

Yet if we pause and truly see,

their quiet magic sets us free.

Life’s grandeur hides in simple things,

in whispered tunes that silence sings.

It’s not the grand, the loud, the bold,

but fleeting gems, more precious than gold.

So take a breath, slow down the pace,

let wonder find its rightful place.

For in the little things, we find

the truest wealth of heart and mind.
