The hourglass drops grains of sand; with thy one I take in hand. For time will soon cease and end in fear; for they would come and disappear.
The Hourglass
The Hourglass
By: Adam M. Snow
The hourglass drops grains of sand;
with thy one I take in hand.
For time will soon cease and end in fear;
for they would come and disappear.
The hourglass falls at the end;
for there will be no one left to befriend.
When the last sand falls;
the writings will be shown on the walls.
The hourglass shown thy pain;
for the light will soon rain.
The hourglass drops grains of sand;
with thy one I take in hand.
Gita Ashok
"The hourglass shown thy pain; for the light will soon rain. ' Wonderful lines! This is a beautiful verse that portrays a stark reality of life.
