Imagine life as one long dark night Inconceivable, a life sans Light Heat came with the Light The earth and the oceans giant sinks made with great insight The light turned green with leaves giving birth to thousands of trees that served to keep very clean the air for life to breathe in The trees also made flowers and fruits as food in their bowers to transmit the Light and heat to diverse forms of hearts that beat Recycling was cleverly inbuilt Light, a genius to the hilt But alas arrived on the scene the naked ape in all his sheen He was the proverbial monkey wrench born with a fist that he would often clench Although he arrived late on the stage the ape thrived under the delusion he was all the rage! Morning and evening this biped walked tall his shadows made by the Light and foolishly thought he was bigger than The Light With his puny little brain this ape wore a blinker And started to tinker calling himself a thinker Many inventions he did make his own unquenchable thirst to slake he never thought beyond the me for he was all he wanted to see! Now the modern ape dwells in a world of his thoughts dark are his thoughts for his mind is a closed sky he lives unconscious always in deep slumber till the day he goes under What a wasted life he leads Without living the life of consciousness given only to him by the Light!

A tale of Light, life and the naked ape
Imagine life as one long dark night Inconceivable, a life sans Light Heat came with the Light The earth and the oceans giant sinks made with great insight The light turned green with leaves giving birth to thousands of trees that served to keep very clean the air for life to breathe in The trees also made flowers and fruits as food in their bowers to transmit the Light and heat to diverse forms of hearts that beat Recycling was cleverly inbuilt Light, a genius to the hilt But alas arrived on the scene the naked ape in all his sheen He was the proverbial monkey wrench born with a fist that he would often clench Although he arrived late on the stage the ape thrived under the delusion he was all the rage! Morning and evening this biped walked tall his shadows made by the Light and foolishly thought he was bigger than The Light With his puny little brain this ape wore a blinker And started to tinker calling himself a thinker Many inventions he did make his own unquenchable thirst to slake he never thought beyond the me for he was all he wanted to see! Now the modern ape dwells in a world of his thoughts dark are his thoughts for his mind is a closed sky he lives unconscious always in deep slumber till the day he goes under What a wasted life he leads Without living the life of consciousness given only to him by the Light!
