The earth laughs in flowers


    Four be the things I am wiser to know:
Idleness, sorrow, a friend, and a foe.
         Four be the things I'd been better without:
Love, curiosity, freckles, and doubt.
    Three be the things I shall never attain:
         Envy, content, and sufficient champagne.
       Three be the things I shall have till I die:
        Laughter and hope and a sock in the eye.
