Impermanence
 

 

The sands of the shoreline are always shifting

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

The clouds drift through the morning sky

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

Time escapes our grasp as the ticks keep tocking

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

Life is new growth from the decay of yesterday

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

In the quiet stillness, I can see my life changing

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

Age slowly attacks the walls once erected

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

Rust oxidizes the metals forged by mankind

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

I walk the earth, then I fall back to the dust

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

Death bring definition to the gift of life

Never the same, one moment to the next

 

The only thing permanent is impermanence

Never the same, one moment to the next
