LIFE.
Our life is but a tale, a dance, a
dream,
A little wave, that frets and ripples
by,
Our hopes the bubbles that it bears
along,
Born with a breath and broken with
a sigh!
It shone a time, then drifted on
and on;
Hike the one butterfly among the
graves
It passed, or like the gleam upon
the waves
Of shaken grass. It darkened and
was gone.
