Whenever I sit for a while <br />Under the great shining sun <br />I feel as if it is just <br />For a moment or two's run <br /> <br />For not very long in life <br />I can wish or hold <br />These blessings of my God <br />For then soon comes the cold <br /> <br />The cold wind that really blows <br />High above the sky <br />From where it brings me <br />The troubles of pain and sigh <br /> <br />And then it leaves me to <br />Mourn and cry for a while <br />And this sad thought really <br />Takes away my innocent smile.<br /><br />Seema Chowdhury<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-sad-thought/
