A poem based on this quote:"That the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse"
Stop,
Look around you,
Little girl on a bike,
Man in the family car,
Old couple, hand in hand,
Snapshots,
Fragments of infinite time,
Life is the never-ending play,
And we’re centre-stage,
Until that final applause,
When the snapshots,
Become fragments,
Become shards,
Become dust,
And we stop.
