Truth Realized

A castle made of sand complete
Holds detail strongly while nature competes;
The sun’s hot rays, the winds, the waves,
And Time’s attack shall end a reign.

A palace made of stone achieved,
It’s splendor and beauty; was this conceived?
The Earth it trembles, cracks, and breaks,
And days go by to end a reign.

Oh, iron manor surely thee,
Will triumph o’er the unforeseen!
But atoms split – carried by plane –
Seconds dissolve thy mighty reign.

A house that’s made of love exists,
Where all is one, and bliss persists,
And all disputes are put to shame,
Eternally shall be Its reign.
