Each Moment Is Precious

Live in the moment,

Just take it all in.

Pay attention to everything, 

Right there and right then.

Don't let your mind wander

To what's coming next.

Cherish this moment 

And give it your best.

Don't let tomorrow 

Make you rush through today. 

Or too many great moments 

Will just go to waste. 

Laugh till it hurts,

Let the tears drop.

Fill up each moment,

With all that you have got.

 Don't miss the details;

 The lesson is there.

 Don't get complacent;

 Stay sharp and aware.

It can take but a moment

To change your life's path.

And once it ticks by,

There is no going back. 

 In just 60 seconds,

 You may make a new friend.

 Find your true love,

 Or see a life start or end.

 You become who you are

 In those moments you live.

 And the growth is not in taking

 But in how much you give.

 Life is just moments,.

 So precious and few

 Whether valued or squandered,

 It's all up to you!
