Impermanence

Impermanence

We’re waves
Thaw, melt and freeze
Impermanence of breeze
We're castles of sand -
Leveled by bully's hand
We’re spider webs and beaver dams all
Mists and illusions ephemeral
We’re mountains disappearing
We’re rivers just appearing – 
Carrying cliffs to emerald sea
We’re a smile of effervescent tea
We’re the sparkling wines that fizz
We’re the physiognomy of phiz
We’re a never lasting permanence
We’re dewing drops of excellence
We’re flying feathers of wren
We’re lotus gardens of Zen.
We're Qi.

akira artlyy Date: 9/17/2026 5:51:00 AM I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist, and I'd love to help bring your story to life if you're ever interested. Feel free to reach out at gm@il : akiracomicart2@ or on inst@ akiraa_artly
Beata Agustin Date: 4/24/2024 12:58:00 AM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
