A Moment
At first I was distracted, I was surrounded by illusion;
Yet once iI over came my doubts there were easy drawn conclusions.
I found treasures in the corners, there were pleasures in the rooms;
There were joys beyond my measure and the gardens were in bloom.
A light would fill the dark, when the dove did spread her wings;
There was music in the air and I heard an angel sing.
My worries of my destiny were put up in a file;
I lived each day expectantly, I was happy all the while.
I created pretty pictures with the using of my words;
I presented times of better days from everything I heard.
It could have been my paradise, or maybe my demise;
It was a place I"d never been, where my spirit learned to fly.
The old ways overcame me, I never could be still;
I'll never know just why I left and I guess I never will.
I can hear the angel singing, I see the workings of my art;
I smell the fragrance of the flowers and the joys that thrilled my heart.
It was such a fleeting moment, That I may never see again;
Is everything I ever was, is it what I was back then?
