This Life

Change to this frame we all must see,
all the plumes by time decays,
merriment on earth a  clip's illusion,
All the dust we'll gather here,
none can hold a single grain    
by different span on groaning plain,
The pores of mortals sees the hues.
There's no lasting glory here, 
these transitory sun-beams, 
bows to the power of time. 
fickle frame, 
a loan of a day,
This life is no Life without Christ
