Gladness of the heart! Thanks for sharing this poem with us.

The beginning of this wonderful poem reveals something powerful. It does not matter what attitude he might try to have, it will not make him happy. The pain seems so deep that he can try to see summer as the most beautiful thing, still he will not be glad. Magnificent piece of writing this is.

Lovely poem. The dead need respect even in summer
