A Moment

This poem comes from my poetry collection, Germinating Constellations, now available on Amazon Kindle (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B06ZZYHXMV)

A Moment

The web of entanglement is so intricate

Even the wind’s whisper can decide our fate

 

A slip of awareness, a memory of delay

A world destroyed or gained

A melody heard or ignored

A love had or never attempted

A thought, a glance, a stranger

 

The blind decision-maker between parentheses and verse

 

Those are the years of our lives

Lived on a whim, fated in a moment

Entangled in the flutter of space and time

A mere whisper in the universal song

Forever changed by a single note
