Nothing Lasts Forever

Snowflakes fall, and quickly melt.
Birds soar, and fly away.
Season's change, never stopping;
Days come and, days go;
Nothing lasts forever.


Bright days turn, into dark nights.
Clouds of white float away.
Words of anger, pass on by;
Special moments, last only seconds;
Nothing lasts forever.

Dreams change, and break,
Friends move on,
Love is only a moment;
Nothing lasts forever.

(11 November 1979)
