The inevitable - Ageing
An universal law binds us all-
Every leaf is destined to fall.
It's nature's way to hold it's sway,
A thing of beauty can never stay.
The finest flower withers to stalk,
Weathers even the hardest rocks,
The brightest stars explode to dust,
Brilliant minds slowdown and rust.
An inevitable cruelty as it may seem,
But it grants wisdom unforeseen,
As the oldest trees grow the deepest roots,
As mellowing makes the sweetest fruits.
Memories fade but experiences remain,
Ageing is nothing but perspective gained.
So, let not it weigh you down,
Wear with aplomb your silver crown.
Live , laugh, or just let it be,
'Cause nothing's here for eternity ♡
