Time and the Moment

Carved red sanded stone

Lies inert over a plot of earth.

The dark strains of sunlight

Color a crumpled bouquet

And a dying epitaph:

Nothing Is Forever.



Across a horizon, trees wave

In an autumnal dusty breeze.

The cries of children wander,

Lazily circling the outer air.

High above, the skies watch

With a languid grin.
