Moments Like These
An aware smile from your baby’s beautiful face as another long day closes,
these are the rewards that we crave,
in moments like these.
An award for your hard work
recognition by your peers
the very reason we do things
for moments like these.
A hero will surface when the rest are left wanting,
but not a second too late,
for moments like these.
A kind word from a stranger when it all seems so dim,
a reminder that hope lives,
in dark moments like these.
An act of selflessness for no reward,
brings hope to the forgotten and encourages us all,
a timely reminder that love is still all we need,
in moments like these.
A fathers broad shoulders to lean on,
when life’s load seems so hard,
just the place to find rest,
in moments like these.
A test of our mettle the struggles we bear,
the faith we hold onto,
Gods strength’s so near,
in moments like these.
Who else to turn to when all’s in despair,
the wisdom of our fore fathers the faith that they shared,
will guide us to Him,
in moments like these.
So heed those tough moments,
look inwardly,
for you’re never alone,
in moments like these.
And as the light begins to flicker and this world starts to dim,
may your faith never falter.
Look towards the heavens,
there’s not much longer to go now
in moments like these.
