Ephemeral Reverie ..21.04.2024

Withered, wilted leaves and flowers,

Symbols of maya, believed to bestow life,

Yet failing to yield lasting joy beyond the fleeting moment,

A brief, ephemeral existence, dissolving into thin air.

Then awakening, transient and fleeting,

Like a lingering hangover, a bitter aftertaste,

Back to the same allure, repulsed, turning inward for contemplation.

Life oscillates between these two realms,

Playing out the drama until the final act.
