Each Moment

Eugene

Tying  shoelaces,

Bending down

My knee hurt. 

A little dart of pain

And suddenly 

Past memories.

Those already gone.

A reminder,

I smiled within

How precious each moment

Every breath of life 

Each painful step

And I rise up 

As on eagles wings

To lofty mansions 

Beyond the dream 

To that city paved with gold 

and quiet peace.

      Great poem . The past can hurt so much , but we can rise up .., or hopefully can . I really like how you mentioned the eagles wings and the city paved with gold .
