A WATCH OUT
Why
should one care life is short,
Enjoy
things in front, say effort,
Paradise
they on earth, search,
Happiness
seek and find lurch, (1)
Nectar
not in heaven, on earth,
Brook
crystal clear dews worth,
Heaven
not in the sky, acquire sky,
Be an
eagle, not a human, so fly, (2)
Freedom
is not a dream, in fact,
Let the
soul be an eagle impact,
No
boundary obstacle troubles,
The
ocean mountain obstacles, (3)
Like
continental bird migrates,
Mind
soars high in the sky relates,
Eyes
are eagle eyes, far-sighted,
Life
can observe detail, is lighted, (4)
Be the
fish in the water, swim free,
Live
hundreds of years be a tree,
Physically
visible human lives,
Swim in
ocean crosses thrives, (5)
Travel
to depth fathomless wit,
Reality
is possible for humans, fit,
Fit
enough to believe, capable,
Soil,
water, air, space, habitable, (6)
Penetrate
root rock, find path,
Humans
build tunnels, worth,
Why not
imitate, like plant life,
Water,
air, sunlight, faces strife, (7)
Humans
can move advantage,
Water
air light nature, to craze,
Live
like a tree, dear human lit,
A
candle burns for century wit, (viii)
Find
under the tree, shed cool,
Peace,
tranquility, comfort visible,
Provide
fruit juices sweet, sour,
Gentle
breeze fragrance flower, (9)
Leaves
provide mattress nicely,
Growing
taller stays for a century,
When
lives, useful, dies benefit,
Make
soil fertile creature greet, (10)
Enable
soil sprouts plant a lot,
Compare
O human you, life rot,
Water,
air, sunlight, fruit, leaves,
For a
hundred years, life believes, (11)
Shed
your hatred, anger, greed,
Born
amidst nature, not creed,
No
color, caste, faith, oneness,
Your
breath animal breathless, (12)
Hunted
nefarious skill cruelty,
Hunt
tiger deer is not a reality,
Fish
that live in water die on soil,
Lord
created living beings toil, (13)
Human
intelligence can decide,
Instead
of protecting kill preside,
Oneness
among plant birds found,
Oneness
stays, animals remind, (14)
Humans
lost oneness declining,
A watch
out your heart defining,
One
world, one race, one future,
You are
a child of God, or else a rumor. (15)
