Twisted leaves fall silently to the ground The circle of life continues around Innocence will not stay for long Ignorance with love is much too strong Suffering from within is not meant or taught Compassion for one is not sold or bought With thought in narrow through a funnel you fall The mind starts out big, but ends up too small Hatred and Fairness, can they both be the same? If you don’t know the difference, they can in this game You do what you see without fault as you grow Embedded in mind you reap what you sow Sorrow is not what beginnings are for Tomorrow and yesterday will equal much more Too many with knowledge is what I concern For the teacher to teach, must be willing to learn Joe Callari
