Life

Posted on Jul 15th, 2007 by JewelMountain : fool JewelMountain


In a single grain of sand
Rests the whole universe,

And in a single star twinkling
The vicissitudes of a millenium.

In the boundless universe,
O this infinitesimal life of mine!

But as a being so infinitesimal,
How light-hearted I can be!
