Time's Unyielding Sands: Embracing the Dance of Life

The hourglass, a symbol profound,

Capturing the essence of time unbound,

In its shapely form, a story untold,

Of fleeting moments and tales of old.

As sands descend, so life does flow,

A dance with time, an ebb and a glow,

Yet no mortal hand can truly command,

The grains of destiny slipping through sand.

For time's domain, elusive and vast,

Defies our grasp, present and past,

Though we may yearn to hold its reins,

It slips away, beyond our remains.

So cherish each grain, embrace the now,

For life's beauty lies in the present somehow,

In the embrace of moments, big and small,

The hourglass reminds us to cherish them all.
