Analysis of The greatest virtue



The greatest virtue.

I saw how green trees,
turned into naked.
How power was declined
that I read.

How glow of skin
Was disappeared
and wrinkled skin
Was appeared.

How inteligence
turned into nothingness.
How reasoning thoughts
turned into thoughtless.

Nothing is permanent.
Changes are inevitable.
but I never found,
downfall of any heart
Which was humble.
