Inevitability .

Another twenty-four hours
any day of pleasure and pain
before the calypso sun
sleeps its final slumber

Reminds me a bit of Sara Teasdale. I like her work because she deals with nature but somehow makes it human; she doesn't just describe birds and trees and so forth, but offers a subtle perspective on them. Same with this piece. There's something intimate about it, and the "calypso sun" was a beautiful touch.
