Captured Moments 28 December, 2010

The thoughts that have passed through my mind...
Thoughts that flew by, uncaptured in time...
The moments I've lived, time that has passed...
The changes these moments so greatly have added...
Once it has slipped by... it is gone..
Never to return...Nothing in life can give it rebirth...

If pondered long enough...a fraction of a thought...
or a simple memory can ~ be brought back to remind...
of a moment that could have changed everything...
Yet, Can it ever change? No!, It is passed.
Can it ever be lived again? No! It can not last.
So then why capture a moment?
~ A keepsake in time.~

To cherish forever...to always remind...
To look back upon with fondness...lest we never forget...
To never look upon it with regret...
                  learning to never repeat it...
To grasp as a tool...a way to help learn...
But then what good are the moments?

If they never are captured?
