Literature Text

A camera clicks
A shutter sounds
Eyelids close
A heartbeat pounds

Sand grains fall
Through an hourglass
A fly’s life ends
Fingers snap

Cool water
On a parched tongue
Refreshing for a second
And then it’s gone

A good book ends
The credits roll
Chords are strummed
Then silence falls

Dreams flash by
Ideas pass
We laugh for a moment
But moments don’t last
A short poem attempting to portray how quickly a moment goes by. Also I have no idea how to categorize this, so I'm guessing...

They may not always last but they can reside in out memories if we care to note them well enough :D Love the poem dear, very emotional and I could connect well with it.
