Don’t be deceived
Glory, fame or wealth
Cannot save you from death
Certain sorrow will be cast at your passing
Your family and if you’re lucky
A few good friends
Will morn you
But their grieving will be short-lived
With each turning season
Their memory of you will fade
Soon, no thought of you remains
Just another cold grey stone
In a field of stones
Will mark that you existed

I love this poem. Funnily I remind myself of this when I sense getting stressed about something. It gives me a sense of relief to simply be in the moment.

and all the more reason to live now, do as we need to in the moment and don’t wait because the future may never come 🙂

Powerful poetry and very true Jerry. There is only this moment, no matter how rich or famous you are.

This is kind of a sad poem, but it is a reminder of what is important and not in this life.
