A Moment in Time
This apparition
A fleeting moment in time
Delicate, beautiful, innocent
Gazing the world with wonder
And with expectations
Undefined.
This apparition
Is like a moment
In the blooming of a flower
In the life of a butterfly
Saying good bye
To the cocoon
This apparition
Is as permanent as a water molecule
In a flowing stream
Ever changing
Ever growing inside and out
Undergoing myriad avatars
In the same body
This apparition
A moment to savor
And keep in memory
It is not going to last
Like peacock feathers
Dried flowers
Nor a marble statue
Or Mona Lisa
To be a thing of beauty forever.
