forget me not

Existence is without sense or reason
Little replicating things of clay
We have our brief time and season
Are born , exist and then decay

A few in passing make some mark
But most are of little sway
Like the early mornming lark
Sing briefly, then drift away.

Mourn if you would forget me not
And sing my song
Less my voice be soon forgot
And my oblivion be over long

Michael, very well said..although...
I would rather think that everyone leaves a mark...
if only in some small way.
Each and every one of us will be remembered.
Good write...made me stop and ponder for awhile.
I appreciate that in a poem.

I enjoyed this, arthur. Reminds me of my poem "Made of sun and clay." Thanks for postin' it!
