The morning, the evening, the days roll by,
With all our strivings, our endings are nigh.
Where does all this effort and madness lead?
Is there a purpose, a rhythm we heed?
Around us is beauty; visions sublime,
Our hearts to be filled with wondering pride.
What more do we need in our earthly stride?
To care for each other; brotherly love to shine.
And striving for perfection, as from above.
These worthy directions, need only be
Adhered and followed, for peace to be seen.
Simplicity? or is it more a wisdom trove?
Why think ye so deep, your spirit to vex?
Knowing beauty, is for its own reward.
