Moments In Time
By Alvin Benatovich - January 5, 2003

Thoughts written
On paper scraps
Saving ideas
From memory lapse

I put my Kabar
To the test
For cutting
It proved best

I brew my tea
Judging its color
Enjoying this drink
More than any other

Ahh� billiards
That�s my game
About archery
I feel the same

Now that I am retired
I have to say
I'm look forward
To each new day

Words can hurt
Words can sooth
Engage brain
Before running mouth

Nations talk war
And strategies evolve
If only in peace
Problems we could solve

Nothing is forever
Life has its end
Beyond our span
We cannot extend

Poems of life
Expressions of love
Drawn from experience
And heaven above
