Mute

Mind moves matter in all affairs;
Urge sows the seed as truth declares;
Time now scatters on spiral stairs;
Embalm each need with feel and fare.
Ask to do good in your journey;
Teach by your deeds true love that heals;
Trust sacred mood to meet tally;
Respond to needs that primes sure feel;
Appease the fire that burns most deep;
Choose to be plain in word and tact;
Thought charms a sire that never sleeps;
Inflame the grain with heart and act;
One way to see beyond all things;
Note fine beauty that ever springs.
