All Passes

All passes, nothing can stay,
Time floods each stone in the way.

Live for decades, live a day,
All passes, nothing can stay.

Childhood illness, teenage fray,
Time floods each stone in the way.

Women and fame, making hay,
All passes, nothing can stay.

Great achievements, mind’s full sway,
Time floods each stone in the way.

Limping body, hair gone grey,
All passes, nothing can stay.

Rain-drenched grave, and none to pray,
Time floods each stone in the way.

Galaxies fail, space is clay,
All passes nothing can stay,

Time floods each stone in the way.
