Life and chronos

Regarding the limitless and finite life.

Never would I have believed that life would be this short,

with moral crevices and days shorter than others

and souls as nurturing to my own as a hundred jasmines blossomed.

I dread for my impatience to smell all the flowers

and for my lustful ambition to plant more trees.

In the lush and tranquil garden I find myself laying down on

the peaceful racings on the clouds I admire,

and the gorgeous cyan color of the sky I adore.

At that moment I feel motionless;

stuck in a time and place far from reality

with that moment etched as forever.

Such is life I suppose.

Ought to be marveled as endless,

destined to be lived finitely.
