Look into this cauldron. Tell me - what do you see? I can see hibiscus, salt, vanilla pods and bees. Let me see what you can see In this navy cauldron of granite, balancing On the remains of a dead tree. It boils and it kills and it nurtures And it can even grow flowers From beginning until the end; if you Do not disturb its condition. I can tell you most things can survive anywhere If you let it adapt and provide tender patience. Say yes, look at your gains and give spirit. Death may be stalking but you tread Thoughtfully along and give praise To beauty and every wonder residing in your only mind. Let freedom flutter and kiss velvet Lips - delight; let silence surrender Us in a nation of two where one truth exists: worth and you. Look in this cauldron And tell me what you see! Because while I see a cauldron of exceptional wonder, you might see a decay
