Life And Death

As the day sprouts from night

So does life spring from death

As the day dilutes into night

Life slowly melts into death

Even as the lightning flashes

Death bolts like thunder, at times

Colors of the universe, bright

But dark are the rays of light

See those fallen shadow there

Are the shadows false of life?

Is life light in motion?

Yonder truth no one knows

He who seeks shall find it sure

From the book of future's life.
