Decay

Flowers fade; so too physical beauty, Smiles, laughs, glamour and gorgeousness shrivel; Wealth and health wane; so too every booty, Bells that start pealing with birth ends with knell, Death and decay like spell in each cell dwell; Seeds decay within womb of earth springs, yet, Rising of the sun does follow its set; Though body rots, soul existence revives, Let not notion of death our heart upset, Life, however, eternally survives... 08 January 2022

… deep recognition Chris! (5th line may sound better rhyming with 4th)
