Absurd

there was a marble statue,
bold and beautiful and proud.
i told it of its beauty
but it stared and heard no sound

then rain came and wore its face
and wind rent its pearly skin
but it was more beautiful yet
and i offered it a crown

the statue heard me not
no matter the truth of my words
but reiterate time and again
i will, is that absurd?
