Petrified
July 25, 2011
Standing high up to the sun,
Smelling the warm, light breeze,
Life was full of fun
Shaded by the trees
But the green grows dark
Their form dissolves
As they return to earth, Hark!
The evening bell drawls
Or there’s another road:
I stay strong through time
Life goes on in the cold
Ashes buried mine
As the years go by
Silver replaces the emerald
My last mortal sigh
New dawn hails the herald
No longer soft and fragile
Life is no longer a game
Living stone is eternal
Now I’m immune to your pain
