Hyunjin Ryoo Poet I do not know?

Life Is a Banquet

Midst a banquet as life defined
Where careless pleasures are consumed
And at the table children dine

Midst a banquet as life defined
Where steps in muted servitude
Rush to aid a mirth refined

A famished cur desires crumbs!
And midst a banquet, as life defined
I grin, complacent, rendered dumb!

Beata Agustin October 30, 2024 at 8:26 PM Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
