) Of what am I the fleeting form?

Sunset bathes the coast in warm farewell.
Sky’s golden curtain: the day’s death knell.

As tidal waves erode sandcastles on the beach
so shortens my life, impervious to beseech.

Like a castle being sand’s fleeting form
so is air only fleetingly a storm.

Of what am I the fleeting form
being tossed about in life’s storm?
