beauty reaches its greatest height
just before fading to darkness
savor that which you admire sighing day and night
shafts of setting sunlight make its ending gold
yes wisher grief is fearsome but never corrupting
raise no armies of heroes in fruitless defense
time sickens and winds everything down
let all that is lovely die peacefully and well
make your words of remembrance shine like gems
sunlit droplets of rain on autumn flowers
