Elements of Understanding
Understanding the elements
always and forever
forever and always...
If such a thing were to be
would it be such a thing?
Would it exist in such a way
that it may develop without delay
But to it all we leave behind
and for what is known as the find
Pieces left , and pieces brought
If forgotten is it sought....
to bring around again,
just a thought
