   The low of noon

Ambrosia fills my lobes
Yet my tongue is dry.
Mud is on my robes
Still I laugh until I cry.

Fiasco is my shawl
The clown my face
Shadows on the wall
Signal me a place.

Once I seemed to dare
Arrows of concern
Now I do not care
The ardor of discern.

Yet I am not undone
I have found my funny bone
And though I laugh as one
It's a laugh and not a groan.

Drops of humor
Water the soil
Keeps the rumor
From embroil.

Thus I've played my final ace
The crusty humorous embrace.

Seymour...
          I agree with Sudhir, and I also enjoyed the fact that you were laughing in the end!!      Wonderful!!


Today is a gift....
That is why they call it
'the Present'!
