It’s Thursday, so I took a peek at Poetry Thursday and thought well, why not?
I don’t link; I’m simply happy to have a stab at their prompt and post it here to my little blog for the one or two of you who kindly pass by.
I have to confess I do get lost around their blog and intellectually it is way beyond my little pea brain.
Wishing
Time stood still
That special moment
Magic casts its spell
Moments rare
Magic moments
Few, far between
Never, never
To happen again
Unattainable
Beyond my reach
Impossible to capture
Grasp, snatch, seize
As that moment slips away
From my hands
Between my fingers
Tiny grains of sand
Gone, gone, gone
In the blink of an eye
That magic moment
Has passed me by

For someone so erudite, intelligent, intellectual and literate, just what part of the words “I don’t link” don’t you understand.
It would be embarrassing… I am not in their league. I am not a poet. I am not a writer. I am just silly me.

Thank you ::blushing::
You know, I’m thinking of not posting anymore.

Love you

Sad, but the possibility of that magic is never gone, EVER. This is something I truly believe, eternal (or is that infernal) optimist that I am.

The beautiful thing about magic moments is that even if one passes us by, there is surely another one in our future … lovely short rhythm to this poem, the style suits the subject. JP
