Life is uncertain and subject to ups and downs, blossoming like the rose, only to wilt shortly thereafter. While reaping the fruits of our efforts in life, we must also contemplate life’s ebb and flow and resign ourselves to the inevitable.

I see a rose,

gradually wilting.

It was the other day

when I saw it blooming.

Its petals now scattered,

its fragrance lost

to eternity,

causing me to contemplate

that youth and age

Can only be lost in time,

Leaving a trail  of

their fragrance forever

In the realm of memory.
