An Ephemeral World

An Ephemeral show, I saw, in a bubble alive,

This moment it showed, in other it died,

Lesson I learnt, to see reflections in lake,

Placid and calm, my dreams, true I can make.

***

Ephemeral visions, the moon phases show,

Waxing today, then waning low,

Lesson I learnt, by following the Sun,

Habitually shining, with no mood or tantrum. 

***

Lessons many, I learned from the flame,

To stay aglow, with a lasting name,

Light I must fuel, day and night 

Burn my wax, to not be an ephemeral sight.

***

Ephemeral lies and visions abound,

Surrounded we are, by fake sight and sound,

Learn to listen to the true, valuable things,

Lasting forever, true happiness they bring.
