Theme: Retrospection

Until the End

Life is not measured
by drips from a tap
or the hands' movements
on a clock.

Life is measured in
moments with loved ones,
the touch of a hand,
the flush of a cheek,
a smile on lips,
breath on your face,
the colour of a hair strand,
scent on a collar.

Unlike a tap's drips
or a clock's hands,
these things
do not move on;
they last forever
and are with you
until the end.
