All old order is subject to decay,
they say and when fate summons,
old ways free fall. Heart-held loves,
friends, hatreds, foes, all, yes, all
give way to mighty time’s sway.
Indestructible, invincible,
grand youthful years, with each
passing year suffer wisdom’s
sedimentation, while marching on way,
time fills in fears, foreboding of future:
quite an accumulation! That knowledge
and fear lose all their power,
For lost is that fear –
a servant attentive.
For lost is that fear –
above head always hovering.
So, lost is the fear –
of not ever returning
As roots are cut now,
or withered; ineffective
pain.
Heart,
now hardened
is drained of that terror.
