Often, it happens grass is not green, But green is grass, and no objection. My love is the tree that is too green. Who'd tell her that the weather works In its own rhythm, and the green has To suffer, and sometimes it is ashen, And looks to offer nothing, though It's summer, and its branches are bare For her. I fain she'd be a bird to understand this. It's not forgetfulness that I'm not same As I'd been in those happy days in school. It's a matter of family wishes, and parents Couldn't be betrayed for their love.
