one moment to believe
things in their right places
solutions will be found
hearts will, hold.

One moment, is all/ http://www.flickr.com
one moment to believe
the self will endure
and tomorrow is not a promise
of things yet, to come.
one moment to believe
the smiles are for real
uncertainties forgotten
goodwill, for the time: now.
one moment to believe
fear will not reign
cowardice won’t decide
courage will step in.
one moment to believe
not the heaps of lies
piles of hesitation
to suspend: disbelief.
one moment to believe
the word – possible
to put as one, together
past, future, and today.
one moment to believe
to walk past the shadows
suffer, rejoice – in the light
and simply, truly, be. π
Nice! I like the controlled structure and I’m a fan of repetition, it provides a certain strong sense of stressing the focal point.
Talk about optimism, this poem epitomizes that! While reading this aloud, I can imagine Whitney Houston’s “One Moment In Time” playing in the background. π
Thanks Ate San! I’m seizing my one moment to believe.
ahaha, salamat. controlled talaga? π glad you liked the piece, ’twas written a couple of months back… ‘to muna, while dilly-dallying with the tagging entry for next post… para saan ang isang saglit post in ssa. parang ni- remix, naging ‘to, tula… One Moment in Time nga…

I believe in fairies on mushrooms, the certainty of sunrises and the love of our Creator. How beautifully you capture my forever optimism. Lovely poem. You said you are from the tropic…where do you life? Hugs, pat,
hello, ms. Pat… glad you dropped by and left gentle thoughts. i love mushrooms, always look for them. have to get to the point where i’d imagine fairies on them, ahaha. it’s always sunny this side of the earth – Philippines. just don’t know if i give it the proper amount of appreciation. always hoping i’d reach the point where i live and not just believe what’s on the poem, huh.. ^^
kind regards… hugs back and cheers π
