This moment seized
and yet is free
The moment gone
and yet a memory
This moment held
and yet is fleeing
This moment sad
and yet is hopeful
This moment quiet
and yet is screaming
This moment now
and yet is gone.
This moment is
and yet is no more.

I love the sense of nostalgia brought on by this poem, very nice :)
It seems this moment will be remembered. Terrific. Simple, yet deep and a message to be heard.
Time is a function of the physical world. Its reality is "bent" in the world of eternal TRUTH - Dali's "melting" clocks showed how fluid and unbinding time is when eternity is perceived.
