If You Have Never Lost A Moment... Poem by Susy Evelyne

If You Have Never Lost A Moment...

Rating: 5.0


If you have never lost a moment
of time, pausing by an old
brick wall to see tiny stars
shooting from velvet cushions of moss,
glistening silver as morning sun
dissolves away the icing of frost -
then perhaps it is time you did!

I have lost many such moments Susy, and been rewarded handsomely for it too. A lovely poem, I wish you'd made it longer.
