Grief

Grief sups away the nectar That gives life its industry And mocks the nature of a soul To define mortality. It rises from... I know not where To shake us to the core Bringing passion to our heartache As the wolf stands astride the door. But like the tide... it ebbs and flows With no thought for you or me And no matter how we suffer... It ponders endlessly. The End

That pretty much sums it up, David. I'd rate this one 'Good Grief.' Keep smiling, Gershon
