At this moment

Time is rolling by
A birthday is passing
Someone is giving birth
While another is dying
A story is passed on
And another forgotten
Someone is remembering
While another forgets
An old woman plants a garden
While another withers
Someone is walking on a beach
With peace in their hearts
While another is on a roller coaster
Of wild emotions
A baby smiles
A ball rolls to the floor
A young woman is crying
A boy enters a room
And you can't stop time
But you can throw back your head
Laugh
And live it.
