Some Hearts, Or Souls Some hearts are fat and lazy Some souls are too They wish to eat and drink and play As a child sings for singing's sake And says just a little more play When time comes to order their room Or their mind. Should we condemn them Chubby chortling souls that they are? Is life nothing but a brief burst of childish Love-of-being and pleasure in the moment And then work till your hands blister And hard skin forms on your soul Encasing your wonder? No. Back to Poems lists . [Image]
