The Grave Digger - Gibran Khalil Gibran -

 "Trees are poems the earth writes upon the sky, We fell them down and turn them into paper,That we may record our emptiness."

The Grave Digger 

- Kahlil Gibran -

Once, as I was burying one of my dead selves, 

the grave-digger came by and said to me, 

“Of all those who come here to bury, you alone I like.” 

Said I, “You please me exceedingly, but why do you like me?” 

“Because,” said he, 

“They come weeping and go weeping--

you only come laughing and go laughing.”
