John Prophet

Moment

Staring 

at the fire,

crackling.

Dark room

candle flicker.

Soft classical 

music.

Christmas tree

lit.

Timeless.

Time has

no meaning.

No meaning

at such a

moment.

Universe

disappears,

outside gone.

Only that

scene, that

moment.

Could be

any time.

Could be

any place.

The moment 

the same.

Timeless.
