The gravedigger's little daughter reads a passage from a loose-leaf book sitting on a broken tomb <br />While her father digs a grave for a pauper. <br />'The cunning fox tells <br />That grape is bitter on the hills.' <br />The kind nurse with a smile brings medicine to a sick bed <br />That's too bitter. <br />His weary beloved makes a night coffee mug of a broken handle <br />That's too bitter. <br />Though the life is bitter than everything <br />Yet we pretend it's so sweet then grab and lick eagerly.<br /><br />nimal dunuhinga<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/bitter-end-8/
