Written for RDP, where Martha asks us
to get creative with the word ‘evanescent’.
Thanks, Martha! Here’s my take.
What’s here will be, too soon, what was;
the now becomes the then because
all beauty bows to nature’s laws –
evanescent, without pause.

Her voice ruled supreme. Maybe what we hear as new today are echoes of the past, refined and combined with age. 🥃🍷Cheers to another new year!
