Life is but a day;
A fragile dew-drop on its perilous way
From a tree’s summit.

John Keats

Out of a misty dream
Our path emerges for awhile, then closes
Within a dream.

The man smiled at him a sly smile. As if they knew a secret between them, these two. Something of age and youth and their claims and the justice of those claims. And of the claims upon them. The world past, the world to come. Their common transiencies. Above all a knowing deep in the bone that beauty and loss are one.

Cormac McCarthy

a passing apparition
or the sudden flash
of lightning -- already gone --
thus should one regard one's self.

And these things
that keep alive on departure know that
you praise them; transient,
they look to us, the most transient,
to be their rescue.
They want us to change them completely,
in our invisible hearts,
into -- O endlessly -- us! Whoever,
finally, we may be.

Rainer Maria Rilke

So shoes are worn and hassocks are sat upon and finally everything is left where it was and the spirit passes on, just as the wind in the orchard picks up the leaves from the ground as if there were no other pleasure in the world but brown leaves, as if it would deck, clothe, flesh itself in flourishes of dusty brown apple leaves, and then drops them all in a heap at the side of the house and goes on.

Marilynne Robinson

The mothlike worlds flit 'round the guttering sun.
