A Warning of Impermanence	A Warning of Impermanence By: Josiah Hopkins Sing me a song of significance One in need of skill to vocalize A ballad commanding reverence And draws a tear to the eye Tell me a tale of relevance Like an epic seldom heard Be sure to mind your eloquence Make me believe in every word Recite a poem with elegance One of your very own design Just speak it without hesitance And it needn't be in rhyme Paint me a scene of opulence One surely of master's hand Without a hint of ambivalence Of a shipwreck in the sand Just live a life of rememberance Make wise use of fleeting time I warn of life's impermanence Do more with yours than I with mine

A Warning of Impermanence
By: Josiah Hopkins

Sing me a song of significance
One in need of skill to vocalize
A ballad commanding reverence
And draws a tear to the eye
Tell me a tale of relevance
Like an epic seldom heard
Be sure to mind your eloquence
Make me believe in every word
Recite a poem with elegance
One of your very own design
Just speak it without hesitance
And it needn't be in rhyme
Paint me a scene of opulence
One surely of master's hand
Without a hint of ambivalence
Of a shipwreck in the sand
Just live a life of rememberance
Make wise use of fleeting time
I warn of life's impermanence
Do more with yours than I with mine
