What. Was that.

This was just a moment in the woods...
Our moment.
Shimmering and lovely and sad.
Leave the moment, just be glad
For the moment that we had.
Every moment is of moment
When you're in the woods...


Oh. if life were made of moments,
Even now and then a bad one-!
But if life were only moments,
Then you'd never know you had one.

Best to take a moment present
As a present, for the moment.


Any moment, big or small
Is a moment after all.
Seize the moment; skies may fall
Any moment.


Let the moment go...
Don't forget it for a moment, though.

Just remembering you've had an "and",
When you're back to "or",
Makes the "or" mean more
Than it did before.
Now I understand-

And it's time to leave the woods.
