A Young Donkey and Palm Tree

               I love them a lot.
                    What an ultimate
                            authority!
                        What an outstanding
                              beauty!
                      What a mighty great
                           river!
                      What an ecstatic
                             joy!
                    What  a crowing
                               glory!
                       Victory has already
                            faded. 
                         A young donkey
                              dies
                      A palm tree 
                          withered.
                      Maybe spring will be
                           back and will flower.
                  The depressed mournful
                         hill is full of bliss.
                   .
