Crisp Notes

Much ado here
With poise that skips
Our purpose here


Too much acid
Now fizzles buzz
Lost cause sinks


Why worry now?
Stay on the way
Of mindful hope


When joy goes
Sense empty shell
Frame hollow mood


Anxious no more
Sad afterglow
In times of loss


Sadness seeds stern
As concerns turn
To odd illusion


Words fail here
With jaded foibles 
Ends do not meet
