A Kiss To Those That Weep

A Kiss To Those That Weep
A kiss to those that weep;
(except for those asleep)
For the flower that wilts
Is neither killed nor half-killed.
(he is but reliving)
A kiss to those that wilt,
And for all that weep!
For they have sunken deep.
(not to fill the need)
Nor to feed the seed;
For this world succeeds
To nourish all the wants
But greed? Not a single one!
(a kiss to all that weep!)
A kiss to those that weep!
A kiss to the red rose!
And nothing to the greedy.
For the greedy –
(a black and morbid death)
The reliving – the wilting,
The weeping, the sleeping,
And the sinking deep –
Had seen and been in love
Time and time again –
(though some have had enough!)
The dead, the killed –
Still wish to again be wilt
Though once they’ve lived and lived again,
It’s hard to be once more.
