Sonnet.4. As Time Moves Poem by Valsa George
Sonnet.4. As Time Moves
As the day ticks away into twilight dusk
The Sun in fathomless waters will plummet
The Earth will then wear an assassin's mask
This in endless succession shall repeat
The grass in silken meadows will wither
Trees clad in green livery will go bare
Youth into infirmity will slither
The body through years of rugged use will wear
Every beauteous form will lose its charm
All to death's stygian vault shall return
Until then, lead your life without any sham
A good name, is all you can strive to earn
We are dumb players in life's pantomime
Act well your part until merged in Time
there's a lot in this poem, not to be lost sight of.
sonnet of wisdom.... indeed e very word sings the song of life and death...start and end....rising and setting.....all hues of the cycle of birth withering wilting and again rebirth....
So true and timeless poem.....Valsa......where life slowly but steadily dissolving and merging with time...... great write as always.....
Beautiful, thought provoking sonnet about our time on this earth is to create and nourish a life lived with kindness and love like leaving our mark on this earth to always remember us by!
A great sonnet about time. Appreciated and admired. Top score!
Every beauteous form will lose its charm All to death's stygian vault shall return Until then, lead your life without any sham A good name, is all you can strive to earn.......so touching and true.All are ephemeral except good resolves. A beautiful poem so nicely executed.10
