“Weltschmerz”

“Weltschmerz”

1/23/12

Bright days and lights
careful planning to be
world’s in tough shape
run down and shabby
however, in the woods
found the flowers full
birds and animals lurk
singing and in quiet
lakes and creeks alike
yet man/woman not
cities cold and damp
too many living a lie
pretending the ideal
while at best not
apathetic and dull
a state of weltschmerz
amid flowers in bloom.
