In a Moment

Pause for just one moment,
and in that moment
you may see the pure translucent light in one small raindrop.
Pause for just one moment,
and in that moment
you may fell a deep stillness that pervades your being.
Pause for just one moment,
and in that moment
you may hear the beat of angel wings.
Pause for just one moment,
and in that moment
you may take flight to other spheres.
Pause for just one moment,
and in that moment
you may
find, distilled, the essence of life.
The moments pass,
but deep within lies balm to bind the wounds.
