Impermanence
No one has ever come here to stay -
Be it a flower's bloom for a day,
A few weeks of a butterfly's beauty,
Or years of man's endless duty.
So, let go - let go -
Why this trife?
All is washed away
On the seashore of life.
What will remain
Is the wave-washed sand -
Awaiting new footprints
Freshly to land.
