All hail to positive change.
I smile or frown from joy or pain
Sometimes,the light of love won't dim
My features become beacon itself
And simmered aches my mind won't swell.
But shell and veil of us we see,
Time finds its way with you and me
Archaeologists won't wonder why we die
In circle of light, the pupil is yet alive.
Life is mostly tender light right now
And when midnight comes, I'll know
that, that, too, shall surely pass
Winter, spring, summer, fall is earth's compass.
The weak finds quietude in humility
The strong faces scent of reality
The wise claims compassion for humanity;
Ancient views, and you, your inner eyes will find
Sometimes, melancholy seeps from pores of mine
But I'll smile with delight, though eyes do sigh
For One Unconcealed Light are yours and mine.
