ACORNS OF SORROW
Most times, what one considers gainful is but a loss,
And a loss, something gainful, eventually.
For the shimmering vapour makes slant the eyes,
And the jangles still the voice.
So we gather acorns of sorrow
confident that oaks of bliss they would bring,
Not knowing that a drop of water now
Would dry up the rain, forever more.
