Certainty
The grass SHALL fade
The flowers SHALL wither
The sky SHALL darken
The sun SHALL cast
The moon SHALL gleam
The trees SHALL remain
The rain SHALL cleanse
The snow SHALL build
The stars SHALL blink
For life will continue, but all things that connect will change
And the measure of those things... SHALL stand forever.
