Manna

Oh!How the moon
Sits in the sky!
Oh!What of life
Has passed me by?

What of the trees?
What of the hills?
What of the streams?
To what do they fill?

What of this world,
And what's in sight?
What of the darkness?
What of the light?

What of this life?
What's to pursue?
Here in this poem,
What's it to you?
