The sky knows no bounds for the heavenly lark The grass never wilts when you walk through the park But joy has no place Until sorrow you taste For you can’t see the light till you’ve stood in the dark
Just what are you hoping to find? To advance you must empty your mind There’s no need to search Or belong to a church Simply strive to patient and kind
The sages admonish edacious pursuits So soften the ego and strengthen your roots Don’t work up a swelter Over hunger and shelter Just learn to subsist on intangible fruits
