AS DEW FROM LILY PEARLS <br />As dew from lily pea[r]ls away <br />Stretched time can’t rhyme eternity. <br />Desire whose fire may warm today <br />Ephemeris is seen to be. <br />We pass, time due, climb through life’s play, <br />Fall, fate forgotten, from life’s tree, <br />Remembered in leafed album stray, <br />Or – for a spell – where family <br />Must thrust dust, trust our writings may <br />Lift spirits from banality. <br />If ALL is in, through, ALL our stay <br />Lingers in some way to key <br />Youth, age, together, thus may mock despair, <br />PEARL Seed be[a]d-feed leads to new life, joy rare... <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />(c) Jonathan Robin acrostic sonnet written 3 January 2007 <br /> <br /> <br />robi03_1551_robi03_0000 ASX_KZX<br /><br />Jonathan ROBIN<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/as-dew-from-lily-pearls/
