A Thought

Our days are numbered short, Gloomy it may seem but We value them because they are as such. We care for spring because The fall knocks every year, Reminder that it will be gone soon enough. A life buds into bloom On the branches of old Where the flowers had ceased life before. Year past The year before, They count because they end And so, we value the lifetime we had.
