ONLY A MEMORY

A fireworks display burns bright

For a short time before flickering out.

Leaving no trace of itself behind,
Only a memory of its fading glory.

Such is our time on earth.

It can be short and sweet.

It can be sad and painful.

A brief time to leave our mark behind.

We must use this time wisely.

Make it dramatic.
Make it memorable.
Make it everlasting.
