How curious tis Nature

on the seeming unfeeling nature of nature

How curious the occasion
Of the funeral procession
Of a young and innocent being

The ceasing of song,
and the darkness of death, The sunlight
thought no more to be seen

How curious that Nature
All around this sad event allows the sun
to yet shine and the birds to still sing

Perhaps Nature knows more than
One would suppose, and that death is
No more than a soul taking wing

Aye, how curious
And most mysterious is death
And how curious the nature of things
