a good moment.

the good moment that came

felt like ecstasy.

expect it to leave

and when it does

wish it well on its way. 

tell it you will miss it,

but you enjoyed your time.

tell it you will be

just fine without it,

that you look forward 

to similar moments

in the future

but that you will not be sitting

waiting for its return.

[Relic's Bare Trees]

I'm aware happiness never comes with a disclaimer. It makes no vows to live happily ever after with its partner. Moments of gladness come like the wind at times, ready to skip away like a leaf to some other place.

I am not surprised no one has reviewed this poem or some of your others being so many have abandoned that idea in droves. But, I am glad I have. You speak from wisdom that is not easy to find here.

[Faati Jaan]

Just as the proverb goes, "This too shall pass", applies to the good things in life as well.
