This moment – v2

Right now, this minute,
A moment precious, wonderful,
In this moment, this time,
This present, only,
This moment magic,
Important, precious,
All we have, right now,
All we ever need…
 
This moment a gift,
A gift to cherish, to hold,
To hold but movement,
Into a future present,
In the present moment,
Conscious, present,
To the gift of time,
This precious moment…
