Fountains of Time


I walked to the corners of the Earth
And found four fountains there,
Each with water falling down
Like locks of Neptune's hair.

 I caught each current in a cup
And brought it home with me,
But little did I realize
What I would later see.

The draught of beauty I had found
Had colored ashy grey,
The lightning shots of energy
Had slowly dripped away.

The cup of everlasting youth
Had grown extremely old,
But burning curiosity
Had turned to wisdom gold.
