One day I was sitting on the ferry dock waiting for a load of laundry. Usually I read a book or play guitar while I wait, but that day I had only brought with me a note book and a pen. To pass the time I thought "I'll do a 10 minute writing exercise." I looked down at my watch and realized I only had 7 minutes. "Oh well, 7 it is." I looked around for a subject to write about and realized with the beautiful ocean in front of me and the palm trees, I should just write about what I am seeing. I thought "What should I title the page? Hmmm... This Moment In Time." And as sometimes happens... MAGIC! Pen touched paper and this song came forward. I erased and replaced only two words as they flowed un-obstructed from my pen.
