Life's a celebration,

I was enjoying the poem when coincidently just at that moment my boys started a quarrel with each other The joy of the moment was gone for a while But I fully agree that living in the present trying to enjoy the glory that most moments carry Is really the way to live. Again lots and lots of meaning beautifully expressed.
This moment is life 'the bank and shoal of Time'. Soul speaks through this poem. I loved it.
True! Our life can become celebration if we live in the present moment away from the regrets of the past and anxiety of future. [For a bygone moment we can't change, A moment to come we can not touch, This moment's the only that shapes Our dreams, need to adopt it as such.]-What a message if we can do it! Thnaks.
I enjoyed how you represented a well examined philosophy through a great collection of metaphors and how this was then arranged with the ABAB rhyme scheme with the division of the question to re iterate your initial point. This metaphor is profound and represents an otherwise common perception from a new angle through the nature imagery, which I thought demonstrated the majesty invoked by believing the aforementioned statement. A good write.
I liked the rhyme and the message, but maybe because I'm more of a free form poet, I felt as if some of the stanza breaks muddled the fluidity. I tried reading it aloud and silently to clear this, but I couldn't. Overall, good message and form.
Rest in the lap so much secure, With a thrill ever to stretch, for highs o' the sky, depths o' the sea, What a wonder it can fetch! Oh how we miss this carefree moment now! Nice capture of that moment.
For a bygone moment we can't change, A moment to come we cannot touch, This moment's the only that shapes Our dreams need to adopt it as such. What a wonderful theme and even more wonderfully expressed. Time stood still throughout my reading of this work of art. A 10++++++++++.... for it absolutely. Thanks for sharing this priceless gem of wisdom.
