Who Would Have Known?

by S.A.H. - Pisces

Who would have known
The flowers that have grown
Would fade to such degree?

Once so alive
And with innocent eyes
Now writing some final decree

Never would have had a clue
Never would have raised a brow
It's amazing---what we all can do
When the time was then, not now.

Young and old
The brave and the bold
Forever victoms of chance

Looking to see
What tomorrow will be
Never learning from circumstance...
As they fade into
A simple glance
Happily not one's own...
Who would have known?
