In the moments that slipped by...

In the moments that slipped by...

A Poem by Lighthouse

                                                                                             

Each moment that slipped by
past my attention,
was a spiritual gift
I never noticed.

we have to pay much closer attention to every moment or we miss so much.

Thanks for your kind comments.
Short, sweet and very significant. Realization is very important as life will offer many more spiritual gifts in future.

I'm sure they will. Thank you for the comment.
Life does seem to fly by... hurried on by all that life brings us. Yet, the greater gift perhaps...understanding at times, moments may slip by...BUT, understanding what a gift life is...and be grateful for it. :-)

Sadly, there are so many that don't understand that.
Love this. Simple yet so profound once again. Time is something that passes us by so quickly and it is through our words that we are able to capture moments that are often lost in the ebb of life.

I forgot I wrote it. lol Thanks.
I like that you focus our attention on this mentality. You allow us to value the passage of time, which really allows for reflection on each of those little moments. I really like how you descried those moments as "spiritual gifts."
