Dust In the Wind
The airborne dust from former tracks
We left in our Life’s Road
Which used to be the evidence
That once we here had strode …
Has all but been blown away
By winds that Progress made
Which ushered in fresh footprints
Now in that dust displayed.
And now … new dust clouds gather
Suspended ‘fore the wind’
‘til once again Progress decrees
They too, shall soon be thinned.
‘tis then when our dust clouds,
Created long ago,
Shall only be a memory
That only we will know.
