Impermanence

Couplet poem

 

Impermanence

 

We’re waves

Thaw, melt and freeze

Impermanence of breeze

We're castles of sand -


Leveled by bully's hand


We’re spider webs and beaver dams all


Mists and illusions ephemeral


We’re mountains disappearing


We’re rivers just appearing �" 


Carrying cliffs to emerald sea



We’re a smile of effervescent tea


We’re the sparkling wines that fizz


We’re the physiognomy of phiz


We’re a never lasting permanence


We’re dewing drops of excellence


We’re flying feathers of wren


We’re lotus gardens of Zen.


We're Qi.
