Happiness

Is not the insect on this tree

Happier than me?

He will live and die

In this wood

As I pass by pondering on love.

 

 

He knows naught of sorrow,

Or  poets who rhyme of borrowed time

And a tomorrow

That may never come.

 

 

He leaves his mark on decaying bark

And knows not why.

While I leave this brief rhyme behind.
