An Atoms Tale Is Epic

If I die before tomorrow

Though the sun won't shine for me

Take pleasure in it's warming glow

There's a future there to see

No life will last forever

The sun will one day fail

But not before we've all passed on

So who will hear the tale

A tree falls in a forest

A whale dies in the sea

What happens to the birds nest

Do the krill sigh with relief

For all things have their moments

And moments are just that

Fleeting blinks of birds eyes

While they are swallowing a gnat

The movement of those atoms

That constitute our food

May see them come full circle

How oft have they been chewed

Eternity is far too short

To learn all that is about

Everything this world has

Is really nowt but nowt

In pondering the puzzles

That plague us one and all

Dont succumb to sorrow

When you see the last leaf fall

For somewhere in the realms of space

In one parallel or two

Will be another one of us

Who holds a similar view

All the atoms that we find here

Have been around so long

Their airmiles are quite staggering

But their engines still on song

For visions of perpetual motion

That man has sought for centuries

Can never match these tiny dots that

Have whizzed around with endless ease
