Colours
Bleach out, fade.
All withers, turns grey.
Dust gathers
Between the cracks in time.
Decay
Gathers pace, even,
Before the curtain falls.

But it is a new broom
That is all.
The scenery changes,
Some of the actors too,
But the characters
Are familiar,
Same old plotlines too.
You will see after all
That nothing’s new.

  1. What an amazing featured image, and wonderful poem. This is the second time that I have heard ‘nothing is new’, must be an important message about dealing with things with a ‘new’ mindset.
