“Have you found your life distasteful?

May 16, 2015

“Have you found your life distasteful?
My life did and does smack sweet.
Was your youth of pleasure wasteful?
Mine I save and hold complete.
Do your joys with age diminish?
When mine fail me, I’ll complain.
Must in death your daylight finish?
My sun sets to rise again.”

~Robert Browning

The even numbered lines in this poem hold the secret to joy, perhaps, Jeffrey J Davis .
