A Rock

Along the pathway  
A rock stands taller than a man  
For years, the wind devils 

Stands against the wind  
A wise mind remains steady 
Along the path of life. 

The complaint or praise 
Those scolding and sweet words
Will pass like the wind  

Cursing or praising  
Keep body and mind like a rock  
Strongly move forward.
