MOUNTAINS CRUMBLE
NEVER ASKING WHY
We live each day and hope
it’s not too late
to complete what’s expected
of our fate.
We fear ill-mannered Death
will come too soon
and steal us from our noble
half-done task:
our best work unfinished,
left in ruins.
How foolish to question our
last day,
when mountains crumble, never
asking why.
Are we humans not less mighty
than they?
All creation in proper time
will die.
Let’s live our lives as if
today’s our last.
Consider life the time from
sun to moon.
Start living in the
moment. Don’t delay.
Open our hearts to
kindness. At least try
to fill the hours with
good. Time won’t wait.
