Feelings of accomplishment are short-lived. As are feelings of pain. Pipe in hand, to lip, smoke in the air, short-lived. The rain drop ripples forming on the surface, short-lived. New buds of Spring, pink and green, short-lived. Even the trees warming my home piece by piece. I'll walk once more around the pond before bed.

Short-Lived
Feelings of accomplishment are short-lived. As are feelings of pain. Pipe in hand, to lip, smoke in the air, short-lived. The rain drop ripples forming on the surface, short-lived. New buds of Spring, pink and green, short-lived. Even the trees warming my home piece by piece. I'll walk once more around the pond before bed.
