Life Withers Away As Flowers

Life withers away as flowers,
its days fade into the evening darkness,
leaving images of either delight or pain;
ah, they cannot be caught as rain!


Life withers away as flowers;
youth was that radiant sun... 
the center of our universe!
Missing out on a pretty sunset or dawn 
is a tremendous mistake;
breathe in joy as you lay down or awake!
