Times of Gloom


Underneath the high blooming tree

It is only my friend and me

Gloomy and grave times fill the air

My soft flute makes the world fair

 

A dog sniffing beneath our feet

Perhaps looking for food to eat

Woman far off in the distance

Dancing only for an instance

 

The deep smooth river running by

Only hearing a smooth soft sigh

These times of gloom desperation

This causes known separation
