Death Devours All Lovely Things

Step back today and gave upon this world of beauty. Gave upon its wonders and mysteries. Take a step back today and look at all the lovely things in which this world contains. But look while you can because it will all soon perish and expire. "Death Devours ALL Lovely Things." A flower may stand tall, give us greaty delight. But when this flower of great beauty is picked the flower will soon shrivel and expire. "Death Devours ALL Lovely Things." A catipilar which is so blissful so joyous comes to a certain point that it turns into a beautiful butterfly giving our sight great delight. But it takes no longer than sinrise to sunset for this beautiful butterfly to perish and expire. "Death Devours ALL Lovely Things." The mountain air, and lovely green trees gives life, gives home to many. It is a breathtaking sight when gazed upon and it takes no longer than a seconsd to take it all away. To stop the rivers from flowing. To stop the wind from brushing through the trees from whispering messages to those who'll listen. It only takes a second for it all to be destroyed. To make this beauty perish. "Death Devours ALL Lovely Things." Everything will soon perish and expire. And if life gives us somethign beautiful we must take it for what it's worth. Enjoy the seconds, minutes, and hours. We must enjoy the time we have to gave upon the worlds beauty and wonders. For "Death Devours ALL Lovely Things."
