I am blessed
I am blissed
to feel it still
in me
in you
in droplets of air
in …everywhere
no reasons at all
no sounds to speak
no skin to wear
no secret to bare
when
all of now
all of me
is in this one moment of you

spring party

Spring party ….by Elizabeth

Elizabeth's avatarTea & Paper

on my way yesterday – a rainy day

in that one moment 
when snow turns into rain
the trees smile
Nature gets ready for the Spring party
flowers, birds songs, lots of sunshine
i feel lightness in the air

after the harsh winter
rain feeds the soil and the roots
Earth fragrance is wonderful
the sun wakes up earlier and goes to sleep later
bicycles and skates are everywhere
garden preparations must start
flowers and vegetable beds

it’s time for renewing
both soul and body
in that one moment
when snow turns into rain
thank you, Nature, for the opportunity
to start over and enjoy your gifts

Change- It just took a moment

Change – it just took a moment —- by Sadje

Sadje/ Sadie's avatarKeep it alive

in that one moment

➰➰➰

What is a moment?

A spec of time, of no importance

But it has the power to change a life

It can be a moment of great discovery

Something that would open your eyes

Sudden realization hitting you like a gale-force wind

Shaking your foundations to the core of your being

Mine was one such event that showed to me

That together with my family I can be the

Strongest shield against the world if need be

Protecting, giving sanctuary in time of distress

Standing firm for one of us when they are weakened

I never knew I had the strength till I was tested

Adversity made me and motherhood stronger

Like a lioness I am ready to protect my children

➰➰➰

I didn’t share any specific details for they aren’t mine to divulge but suffice to say that when a member of my family…

In that moment ….Read on

Damien de Soto's avatarHerder of Swine

I missed the train back from the city.

One beer and a bag of Raisinets, bought for lunch and dinner,

Causing me be to be late, because

One beer was never enough

So I bought another tall boy

Prophetic in its prediction of what was to draw

Me away from the home I was already late to return to

And the arms that I would go to instead, screaming

“I am a woman in trouble, I am no heroine. I can’t save myself,”…

Wanting for a hero,

I manufactured a situation by accident

That was perfect for a wanted rescue.

A victim of time, more than man,

I remember in that moment, running to make my train,

5:35

But, I thought

No I didn’t… didn’t think..

Just did… Just sat.. so far away from the home that was crying for me,

While I was crying quite…

UNFORGETTABLE MOMENT; GIFT OF NEW LIFE

Pacing up and down the hospital corridor, I waited nervously for the doctor to call me in to the theatre.
My wife was about to give birth but the doctors had to prepare her for her cesarean section.
After what seemed like an age, a doctor finally came out and beckoned me in.
A screen had been erected between me and the section to allow for some dignity for my wife but…

In that one moment — by Destiny

Written for Reena’s Prompt #264
So, here goes the prompt for this week – a phrase.
in that one moment

In that one moment

as she stood over him,
her mind incoherent
to ask the why then –
she looked down at him
one last time
couldn’t comprehend
the suddennessof
what this meant
she ran her hand
down his face
and dropped
a gentle kiss
on his forehead
thinking, ironically,
how this gesture
was his personal
signature
and here she was
returning to him
his always loving
nature

Too numb then
to accept
the reality of this
finality,
she recalls
as she walked
out that room
rubbing her hands
together
repeatedly
to expel the cold
that had imprisoned
her body
completely

She walked,
perhaps ran,
into the open air,
the sun struck harsh
that treacherous day

She looked at the faces
that looked back at her,

In That Moment

In that moment ………. by Diana Coombes

Written for https://reinventionsreena.wordpress.com/2023/02/09/reenas-xploration-challenge-267/ In That Moment.

In that moment, the day both my children were born, I found out what true love actually meant. My first child, 9lb 1, and let’s just say it hurt a bit. Although all that went away when my daughter was handed to me. We already knew the name, it was always going to be Elizabeth, yet she is more of a Lizzie now. When my son was born (9lb 10) I made sure I had all the pain relief on offer. It was much easier, and again, when he was handed to me, all the pain just melted away.

I never worried about my children, looking after them I mean. They were sturdy, not fragile in the least. I could look after them, without over thinking my role as a mum. Both adults now, I find it hard that my daughter will be thirty-two…

First delivery

First Delivery ….. by Tuba Sarwat

Giving birth was the toughest thing of my life. I was so scared during birth. All I could do was pray to almighty that everything would go well. During the C-section I felt helpless, knowing that I had no regime and that everything was depending on the doctors and the almighty.

The moment that celebrated my motherhood experience was when doctors put the baby on my chest. I felt the strongest bond in those couple of seconds. I felt the blood rushing through my veins directly into my heart and I knew now in that one moment, I was going to live for two.

The actual birth experience was extremely hard. I was in labor for 19 hours and still wasn’t able to give birth. I was losing my strength and some difficulties were coming up when the doctors finally decided to do…

Unexpected Passage

Unexpected Passage …. by Susi Bocks

Inspired by Moonwashed Weekly Prompt #129 – Lovingly & Reena’s Exploration Challenge #267 – in that one moment

in that one moment
adoring me lovingly
didn’t know it would end

We were good, we were gold
Kinda dream that can’t be sold
We were right ’til we weren’t
Built a home and watched it burn

Mm, I didn’t wanna leave you
I didn’t wanna lie
Started to cry but then remembered I

I can buy myself flowers
Write my name in the sand
Talk to myself for hours
Say things you don’t understand
I can take myself dancing
And I can hold my own hand
Yeah, I can love me better than you can

Can love me better
I can love me better, baby
Can love me better
I can love me better, baby

Paint my nails, cherry red
Match the roses that you left
No…
