Closer to Death
On such a dazzlingly bright day
I can only wonder
At the beautiful light show
Marvel at the freshness of the air
Ponder the beauty of it all
Develop my sense of gratitude
Gratitude which is surely missing
In my heart
These efforts of mine
To lead a good life
Have brought me to this point
And yet I am still dissatisfied
Though many battles have been won
Many have been lost too
What have I learned?
Treat people with respect
And ultimately you will win the day
Circumstances change
And with it our security
We must be vigilant
And prepare for upheavals
For life is changeable
The wheel will always turn
Bringing in new life
And taking all who live
Closer to death
