[net.poems] Life/a warm summer's day

mhb@mtx5a.UUCP (q) (06/19/86)

Life is just a passing thing.
A phase, a segment,
                a dead-end,
           a path, a maze.
A mountain lake. 
A race course
     a golf course
        a spiritual course.
A celebration, a torture chamber.
A traffic jam, a circus.
A situation, a challenge,
   a pain in the neck.
A battle, a barbeque.
A birth,
     a wedding,
          a funeral.
A loving embrace, a bus-stop.
A warm summer's day.
Life is just a passing thing.
