"Allegro Ma Non Troppo"
Life, you are beautiful (I say)
you just couldn't get more fecund,
more befrogged or nightingaily,
more anthill or Sprouting.
I am trying to court YOUR favour,
to get into your good graces,
To anticipate your whims!
I am always the first to bow,
Always there where YOU can see me
with my humble,reverent face,
soaring on the wings of rapture,
falling under waves of wonder.
Oh how grassy is this hopper,
how this berry ripely rasps.
I would never had conceived it
if I weren't conceived myself!
Life (I) say I've no idea
what I should compare you to.
No one else can make a pine cone
And then make the pine cone's clone.
I praise your inventiveness,
bounty, sweep, exactitude,
sense of order - gifts that border
On Witchcraft and Wizardry!
Life:
I just don't want to upset you
tease, vex or rile.
For Millennia, I've been trying
to appease you with a smile.
I tug at you life, by your leaf hem:
will you stop for me JUST ONCE
momentarily forgetting
To what end YOU Run and Run
