This is the Moment

This Is The Moment 

A Holy Moment - with my God 

Surfaced in the whirlpool of time

Forgetting that what I have had

Been in my past and the modern clime.

I need this - a Holy Moment

That Thy will be done on this earth,

While heaven is the final event;

Need to understand Thy lowly birth.

And setting aside what I felt

As I availed myself to Him

Daring in my prayer to vent

The faith that is clear, not bedimmed.

I must act fast on what to do

On the Almighty Creator

Without any further ado;

Must succumb to my Editor.

And on this day, I must admit

I just need only the moment

With my love and to be legit;

A moment that is permanent.

In the firmament of my conscience

In a terrain of loveliness;

In technology and science

In a world of profound bliss.

(N.B.)  This poem from the smithy of my being is a remembering of the moment when my wife expelled her last breath on this day. (29th of November 2015) . Evangeline Rueles Magallanes Caermare Trabanca ( Eve/Vangie) is remembered and in her peaceful rest, may the perpetual light illumines.

Evening of November 2021

 The Pouring Rain...

There's a time in life when the rain just falls.

You are soaked wet. You look for shelter.

And you search for different walls

Then comes the moment to ponder.

And you pray for the rain to stop

Tears just cascade into your cheeks

Those worldly things you have to drop

One by one in the lonely creeks

Waver not as help is on the way

When you are lost you have an angel

Ever ready when you are astray

With that, you have a story to tell.

 

In life, true friends are hard to find

Like rare seeds of beautiful plants

You have to pick and choose the right kind

Remember there are rabbits and ants.
