Echoes of the Soul

An opelescent sky is casting such glow
Hourglass moments a sip of sweet wine
I watch my truth sieve,suddenly I know
Life is a grain of sand in a bucket of time

A speck of dust out shines my shooting star
Its dazzling spark soon fades to nothingness
An inner journey that echoes a soul's bazaar
Trading a wish for a gallant heart's  prowess

Memories ripple,as I unscroll,the illusion
Turning back the pages to a summer's joy
I recall the vibrant flower's sweet infusion
Everyday was a blessing for us to enjoy

Time is of the essence,love a full necessity
Let us sift mindfully, cause life is full of brevity
