Worthday Candle

 

         
mother and father
          hoped for good
          while
I oh I
          strove for better


Yet we found
          this final-seeming report 
here and here
          scattered around


It says we got and give
          neither
more nor less
          of
worth and can
          than
yet one one other
          of
boy and man
