Time

As surely as the plow
tears through the soil-
uprooting
disrupting
furrowing...
preparing the field
for cultivation,
time just as surely
plows through our lives-
birth
growth
death...
leaving its mark
on generations.

And we can only hope to leave a 'mark' of worth. Well done, Robert.

Just as there is erosion to the soil, also can a family erode, if not taken care of. Well done, Sir!
