Array ( [sid] => 154414 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => WE'RE LIKE DUST [time] => 2009-10-25 11:56:35 [hometext] => Life is constant change, there is not one that can remain the same........ [bodytext] =>


WE'RE LIKE DUST

We're like dust that appears for awhile,
or,
a sun filled day that slowly goes away.
perhaps......
fun filled clouds that waltz across the sky.
rain drops that fall, then, evaporate by and by

A Harvest moon in all it's splendor,
radiant like a sun filled summer
or,
replaced by a slim sliver of light
barely visible at night
perhaps.....
good health, a fun filled life of joy
bend over frame enduring pain n'er enjoy

Same never remains the same,
or,
change, interchangeable, lost to claim
perhaps,.....
sway, to and fro......turn about
unsteady, fixed, quietude to shout!

We have unconquerable souls we.....
or,
deep roots that absorb the winds from the tree
perhaps......
living between these two extremes freely
Mutability or..............Futility?

It is the same!--For, be it joy or sorrow,
The path of its departure still is free:
Man's yesterday may ne'er be like his morrow;
Nought may endure but Mutability.
~Percy Bysshe Shelley~

Hi,

Beautifully scribed! A journey through life - fleeting
pleasures ... forgotten ... remembered - and your
title suggesting how vulnerable we are in the
larger scheme of things.

p.s. never did manage to follow your instructions
regarding 'link'. ''Computer illiterate!'' - that's me!

Tommy
