About the Poem

This poem was written to bring to life an experience with a gentleman that passed through my life and left me touched. If I see him again or not, it was a very special moment. This poem emphasizes the important of special moments and to appreciate them no matter how long or short they are.

Moment in Time

We talked,
We walked,
for a Moment in Time.

You passed through my life that day and left your mark.
You may never pass my way again,
Or you may stay for a lifetime.

No matter what,
I want to say thank you for the impression you made
that will stay with me for eternity.

I enjoyed the walk,
I enjoyed the talk.
I am blessed for that moment in time.

The first time I saw you I knew you would affect my life,
though your role I did not know.
I asked myself, "Why is he alone?
Why does he sit so quiet, all alone?
Is he sad?
Is he glad to be alone?
Is he alone?
Is he lonely? "
There is so much I want to know.

I asked myself, "Why him?
When so many people pass through my life each day,
why him? "

What attracts me to you?
What makes me want to know more?
I want to know.

Even if my questions are never answered,
There is one thing I want you to know.
I have been blessed by the effect you had on me in that
Moment in Time.

I was just surfing for poems with the word "moment" because I'm making my our personalized journal and wanted some ideas since Moment was a maybe title. When I fell upon your poem it was amazing. It really captured how I felt with this one friend. Thanks. I would also like your permission to post this in my online journal and in my personal journal. Thanks!
