The long boredom of the endless afternoon
And the sudden meaninglessness I feel
I try to dispel now
By observing the calm green leaves
Of this sad rain- soaked park-

Nothing I do or say
Can lift me now
And this pen across the page
However valiantly it tries
Does not too take me to where
I am really alive once again.

Nothing can be said or done. You are alive once again and this is really a very good news. The long boredom of the endless afternoon is noticed and felt well. An interesting sharing is done. This poem is very well penned.10
