                        pen & ink on rag paper MCS

 

Days are kept full

however the future

remains unmarked

 

Time whistles past

a familiar tune

however the name escapes

 

White clouds meander past

a gunmetal sky their backdrop

perhaps it will rain

 

Life marches on

death takes notice

one’s stature noted

 

This brush with the grim reaper

soon forgotten and out of mind

but somewhere a pine box is being built

Don't look toward the end...focus on the beautiful clouds that line the sky. They truly make us who we are...xoxo

For life rolls on like the sea
Wave after wave
None passes without
leaving its' mark
on the sands of time

Such a haunting image accompanied by haunting words. Mesmerizing. R
