Value Every Second Poem by Cody O'Hara

Time
Sifting through fingers

We should Value every second
Like a diamond

Hold it long in embrace
As though it were a close friend

Remember the texture upon your hand
And recount how beautiful it felt

See in that second a light
So grand your very soul is put at ease

Only letting go when you must
And with joy welcome the next

For when the sands are washed away
By the sea of this existence

You will only have memories of
Those jewels that rush through your fingers
