Know

Know the light that shines in darkness
And the soul will find its way,
Look at pebbles thus with kindness -
Do not throw them far away.

Know the beauty in her brilliance
And the sorrow in its sway,
Look at petals grow in silence -
Do not cut the rose astray.

Know the love as it surrenders
And the paths it might not lay,
Look the lover who discovers –
Do not disturb in vain the play.

Know the self and all that matters,
Love what settles day by day,
Look the sunrise altogether –
From the ends and starts of May.
