‘Beauty is vain
As short-lived as a flower'.
Grownups whisper into our ears
From where I first read,
Witches today were damsels
But their beauty is now in the past.
Shall I also lose my present gift to old age??
All evidences prove it right!
The fashion of the 90's
Is the trash if the 21st century
And so shall theirs fade and fade
Because as time flies, beauty cries
Tuning to the tone of the hour.
Becoming the beast of all ages,
As the sun goes down.
Then those with pride in appearance,
Will surely seek a hiding place
When the transition age arrives...
