The green light of meadows,
The wondrous songs of birds
and the inner silent mountains
continue to bring forth on earth
the most amazingly profound
arenas of Love and Beauty.
Alone,
they are a perfect mystery,
That with truth and sincerity,
with faith and knowledge,
with deeds done with courage,
You can honor your life
and rectify your history.
Now,
Instead of dreaming, blathering
and thinking of negative capability,
harken to see this possibility
and drive it to light with humility.
