The sun shines so cheerfully
On my sadness
What can I make of it
She is not unaware
She does not lack compassion
And too
The bright blue sky
Clear as a brilliant sea of
All my sorrow
I clutch a fragile branch
That quivers ‘neath each heavy sigh
And one small bird
Sings joyfully
And flits about
And gathers my discomfiture
Attracted to my company
On my sadness
What can I make of it
She is not unaware
She does not lack compassion
And too
The bright blue sky
Clear as a brilliant sea of
All my sorrow
I clutch a fragile branch
That quivers ‘neath each heavy sigh
And one small bird
Sings joyfully
And flits about
And gathers my discomfiture
Attracted to my company
