My Lament
Endlessly turn these tides;
 against tempest cyclones
 and pounding storms
 they rise and fall indifferently.
 
 If we were so resilient...
 to see the stormy darkness
 and never waiver,
 never tremble,
 never fear.
 
 To murmur softly,
 "There must be goodness here."
 
 To train our minds with spartan fortitude
 and revel at the challenge of these storms
 
 If only courage came so easily
 as peevishness does
 Oh, the things that I would do.
