Analysis of Poetry



Time under the cover of the blazing cold
Has good natured hearts to uphold
We the people of the world
Carve out diamonds and pearls
Write with dewdrops of lonesome words
Our tribulations and fears
Accumulated cumbersomed and dirty due
To the cold hearth
Yearning for time to help us out
And rain blessings from that silver cloud!
