After A Mere 4 Days Poem by Sylvia Lukeman

After A Mere 4 Days



After a mere 4 days
Pale pink hydrangeas
Are palest coffee grey.

Peach petalled rose buds
Have now burst forth
And gently sway.

Cotoneaster
Showered her leaves
With berriesred

A single snail
has left his trail
Across the narrow human
trodden path.

A clutch of dust laden
man-made flowers,
For her lovedone

Rich red now
surrounded by
dark rained upon
freshly weeded soil.

Indeed, the only permanent thing in life is change. You just have to get used to it and embrace it with a welcoming heart.
