I like this poem becuase it expresses the authors feeling and views to
happines. i'm sorrry but i have to disagree with some of your comments. And
if a poet dies, respect must be shown to the poet.

Guys, have some courtesy would you. For one, he died in 1988, way before it
was posted up on this website. He isn't going to respond to them, ;)
Anyway, don't bash a poem just because you can, if you want to bash
something go outsite and use a golf club or something of the sort.
