Moth.

Missing image
The World is a garden,
Full of flowers,
Wondering butterflies,
The birds are singing marry notes,
In bushes,
And in the skies,
For love of beauty,
Love of life,
The sun is shining bright,
My life and love and existence,
Is nothing but a night,
The grains of sand are sharp and swift,
The grace of life, of time,
The beating heart destroy,
Oh stop the world,
The spinning glob,
It’s whirling by and by,
Let me breath,
Oh let me breath,
I want to make it right,
My life was full of melody,
My heart was full of joy,
But Ah! The sand of time that ends,
I have no more to fly,
I am no more in the books of world,
Not in the books of Gods,
Ah, the sun,
That rises in the east,
I have to go now,
Good bye all,
For I am just a moth,
Not a priest.
Ah my life is short,
Ah that I am small.
See you people,
Good Bye All.

    So sad...that is all I can draw from this ...sadness...it does Dostoyevsky justice for his writing also carries this drenching heaviness...Be well, always, Rhonda
