A Moment in Time
8 Jul, 2020 | What's happening in my writing life



In the same memory-moment
our families, friends and loved-ones
were being told that
this time, lock-down would be harder,
tougher
longer . . .
we were seeing,
touching,
cuddling,
our new baby grandson
for the very first time.
Baby-smell,
baby-ears,
baby-rose-lips . . .
perfect in every way.
Tears flowed and tumbled
as our little family photographed these precious seconds
on our cameras,
in our minds
and in our hearts.
Things will get better, for us all,
but for our family, the next straight-edged-block-of-time will be full of
snatched moments,
and shining glimpses,
caught through the window,
as we deliver care-giving food and supplies,
but most of all,
bundles of love.
Thank you dear Bella, Wade and baby Jasper.
