This Moment Transcendent

Kurt Philip Behm

As days become short,

the more precious each hour becomes

Memories lengthen,

to stretch like the rays of the sun

Time is unfolded,

its layers unmasked to expose

This moment transcendent

—the past and future deposed

(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2017)

Betrothed

Victory is a lover

—that must be wed

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2014)

On "Betrothed" ... 'Whatever we conquer is with us forever.' On "This Moment Transendent" ... 'As we age, we become more reflective upon, and appreciative of, the present moment.' This what I take from these two fine expressions, Kurt. Well done!

Great takes, Louis.

Thanks

Kurt
