The Fourth Sung-Poem


                                        I

        How crucial is a given time? How?

                             Tuba-Tuba-Tuba Rhyme-Rhyme-Rhyme.

        Your minutes jingling like dimes. How?

                               Tuba-Tuba-Tuba Chime-Chime-Chime.

        Days ‘like spit-out cherry seeds. How?

                                           Tuba-Tuba-Tuba Bit-Bit-Bit;

        Months like the berries on your tongue. How?

                                      Succulent but don’t last for long!

        Years like a Sukkah up and down How?

                                 Sukkah-Sukkah-Sukkah flew around.

        Decades are walking slower then: How?

                                     Walking, walking, walking 1 to 10

        So, a life is crawling anyhow...

                                      Just rarely nine decades allowed.

        Though, seems you can try hard forever,

                                there’s never time to think and stare…
                                       II

        You’re working day, you’re working night;
                                      you’re busy, so you feel all right;

        But doing things without thoughts is

                                                   to live life like a goat.
