'This Earth-Life! ' Poem by james watkin

'This Earth-Life! '



Ask a soul, who is the essence
Of the child, eternal
What distracts it, momentarily
Through its gaze, perpetual
And it will point you: 'this earth-life! '
That boxed up, for a toy
Shiny as new, wound up as morn's
Carefree-held noisy joy.
Wise to the process, taught through tears
Of having to accept
Its workings sometimes grate; or worse;
Fall apart; not well kept.
