This moment

This moment we’re blessed

As its treasured guests

Appreciate its hospitality

That gives us this reality

It allows us to become

Everything and then some

But we live unconsciously

Preferring quantity over quality

The moment will not return

To the proud who burn

Time, in riches they’re sodden

They fear being forgotten

The moment will not forget

We owe an unpayable debt

It has allowed life to thrive

In the now, none is deprived
