STONE

 

Cold to the touch and as old as time itself, the eons fall by the wayside as the dawns come and go just like rain falling from the sky.

Just now like before things are changing, constantly, forever more.

Nothing stays the same – even the rocks and stones are worn away,

ground away until only sand remains.

Time defeats everything from the dinosaurs to the ice age.

Will mankind go the same way or will he flee to the stars as our planet turns to dust?

 

 

stone   last forever   time   weather   aeons   change

â—„ What a Plane Day
