Long Gone Are the Days

Sitting on the the green blanket Crushing an ant and a termite That are busy colecting their food in a bite To eliminate and terminate The hunger come winter At the other end of the meadow Among not a few willows Are several windows Upon which lives several widows All looking out of their windows Looking back at their past Which is long past Wondering how fast Their lives flew fast And wishing wistifully that the rest will also be fast
