All through life they are there,
Those moments that happen.
Every moment is different,
Every moment is special.
Many moments are forgotten,
Many are remembered.
But the even the briefest
Of the most wonderful moments
That happen in our lives,
Can last a lifetime

A fine write and pic Gold. Reminds me of: 'With the Lord a thousand years is as one day, and a day is as a thousand years' as Peter says in one of his letters/epistles.
Us two might only be a few days old then - a few centuries. Or mega-old, if even one day is like as a thousand years!
Thank you Orchi, time is ageless.
Yes certain memories are just a seconds snapshot in time as are remembered words spoken. Fine observational write.
Thank you Michael, It was a statement I heard on TV yesterday.
This poem really made me think about the things I remember most ,over the course of my lifetime.
So often, we don’t realize while we’re in the moment, how fondly we’ll recall it later on in life.
Lovely read!
Thank you for sharing it 🙂
Thank you Resa, some moments are so very special and they are just moments.
Thoughtful Goldfinch! And sometimes it's odd exactly which moments come back isn't it, when at the time they didn't seem memorable at all!
Thank you Lorna, yes that is very true.
"Before MOZART there was nothing" JOHN LENNON !
Love your poem Ideal for Meditation on Sunday Morning ! It reminded me of "There come a tide in the Affairs of Man ......" and "Some enchanted evening ~ You may see a Stranger across a crowded Room ...... " Both are true in my brief sojourn on Planet Earth ! Thanks ANDY ~ for sharing & caring ~ Yours BRIAN !
I quite admire John Lennon but not this statement, so many great composers before Mozart, I admit that Mozart was/is the finest of them all but JS Bach runs him a very close second. There is a train of thought that says the four best composers who should never be decried were Mozart, JS Bach, Beethoven and your personal favourite.
Thanks for your comment Brian.
Thanks ANDY ! Love all THREE and the BEATLES of course ! My fave composer is CHOPIN and my fave Piano Piece the REVOLUTIONARY ~ AMEN ~ Yours BRIAN
A great write, Gold!
Thank you for sharing!
As I get older, it’s the little moments that are more memorable; whereas, once I thought of them as insignificant!
Now, as I remember them, I write them down...as requested by my children!
I enjoyed listening to Mozart’s Piano Concerto...(molto andante)!

Those moments are special and you are so right to write them down, there are many times when I think of things that I never asked my parents.
This was a great poem
Thank you LRP, you are very kind.
