Canyons
Deep ravines of the land
mirror the deep ravines
inside us all
Canyons where the remnants
of past ages
can be seen
They have left their mark in stone
Another age
Another time
When things were
vastly different
then
they
are
today
Readers of this poem
Remember the words of Pythagoras
"Time is the stream I go fishing in"
We cannot halt the onrush of the years
The vast ravines within and without
will have their say
"This too shall pass" -
words of comfort from the great King Solomon
can help us on our way
to eternity
