Flight
Seek the simple fare
In mundane affairs
Hear the music chimes
Echo in strange, fond rhymes
Touch a sparkling sight
Where moments delight
Heed the sad refrain
In lovely complain
Who cares for the lost
In cause or sad cost?
Fear grinds joy away
Sorrow feeds no pay
Too soon and too late
Harsh stroke mock sad fate
Who will toil for free
In this tragedy?
