JADE OF THE FALLING SNOW

by

Ronald G. Auguste

(For Jade Snow Tseng)

Jade of the falling Snow, please bear in mind
All things that come last for a little while.
Delight and joy, the dearest you can find,
Evaporate, and seldom leave a smile....

Should you despair for faded love, I pray
New love's delights will illumine your soul;
O Jade! stray from those paths of yesterday,
Where bitter memories still gain control.

The paths you walk should wend below a sky
Serene and clear and blue and free from rain.
Each day and night should carry, by and by,
Nothing that makes you feel your life's in vain.
Go, Jade of the falling Snow, and love again!

NEXT?
Why don't you look at Iamb Meandering. 144.
