Creation

Disaster forms an order,
From firmament and water, In this stew, grew myriad spawn
And from this brew we were born.

Change, the sculptor of the lot,
Change, the magic of begot,
Fosters life in many ways,
As centuries move like days.

We are, a wink, a flotsam dot,
Living for, I know not what,
Waiting for the end abort,
For an answer of a sort.

We ask ourselves in constant zeal,
To whom and what do we appeal?
Change is the only order,
That drinks disaster's water.

An eternity of one
And eternity for none.

And change is the only constant my friend - the only thing on which we can rely.
Love this piece Sy.

RSEvans,
Not to deep I hope.
Martie,
Just a change of pace.
Elizabeth,
You have just revealed the secret of the ages.
Severn,
Yes it is true, change is the only constant.
