Ecclesiastes 9:9-12
Wise Solomon called it vanity
that men should strive to gain
more earthly possessions than wisdom
even tho it brings strife and pain.
For we know not what time we are given
tho we be snared in an evil time.
So live joyfully with whom thou lovest
that true joy your heart shall find.
