Song

Only the elementals stay
All else must fell away
Time washes over night and day.

Only the errant memory of a face
In the mind can hold a place
While time keeps up his steady pace.

Only the sea and land
Never dissolve. Time will not stay
But runs ahead to meet decay.

Time washes everything away.
