Only For A Moment Poem by Faith Elizabeth Brigham

only for a moment
as the rain
fell on my face
your body long and lean
played on my memory

it was winter once more
as we lay
in each others arms
fireplace ablaze
so far away that place
once was none as laurel farms

i was still
so unsure reaching
for you in the night
words so softly spoken
as your heart beat
close to mine

then the sun
came shining and warmed
the sand beneath my feet
as quickly as
you came i felt you
leave my memory
