Forever ?

by Tom Swart   Jun 16, 2005



" Forever "

Forever, a word meaning ever lasting.
The word will live on long after we're gone.
How long will we be around to use it?
The world dies each day,
and with our help
it will never rise again.
Soon only the words on
our tombstones shall live on.

    I really like this piece.
    The tombstone is a powerful image; I think of one that says the word forever on it. Your vague points are yet very specific, making your message obvious.
