Vanity of Existence

Lifepoems

In youth, gay scenes attract our eyes.
And not expecting their decay
Lifes flawering feilds before us rise
Regardless of its winter day.
But vain pursuits, and jays as vain
convince us life is just a dream
Death is to awake, to rise again
to that true life you best esteem
So nightly on some shallow tide
Often i have seen a splendid show
Reflect stars on either side
And glittering moons were seen below.
But when the tide had edged away
The scene, fantastic, with it fled,
A bank of mud around me lay,
And seaweed on the rivers bed.
