The Rock and the Flower

We must thank God for the good things and bad
We must thank him whether happy or even sad

We must follow the tide, of nature's flow
As the heaven's fortune may come and go

Dual life made of male and soft fellow
A rock  and a flower, life is made of two

So may the rock some tender emotion, show
And the flower, a bit tough shall grow so
 
Make it a tender rock and live between
A heart is gained, moderation, I mean

Life has ephemeral flight like a bee
Sowing a light flight, and leave sweet honey

You can never reach all the hearts even be
A prophet, so whisper peace, speak softly
