- Final notes: Thanks everyone for entering the contest, you really showed me a varied group of moments that slowed down for you. It came down to what I had in mind when I started, I wanted that 3 seconds that became a lifetime, and for me the poems I picked here were the best depiction of those moments.
Thanks everyone ..again.. for entering.

Thank you Suzi. I cringe at the thought of the moment I penned. I simply let go of the steering wheel and things happened as they were going to. I do believe, had I tried to control the situation, I wouldn't be here today. I came out of the accident without a scratch. The car was totaled. It sat flat with "no wheels" beneath it.
Thanks again! I am truly grateful that I don't have many "moments" like that one.
Congratulations to all the CUP WINNERS here! Great choices!
Much Love & Happy Holidays ♥
