Alive among your many dazzling days.
Before you rush away toward whiz-bang flash,
Accept around you beauty’s bursting blaze.
Because your body’s bones will fall to ash;
Because you’ll have no need for brash and cash;
Consider well your days upon this earth;
Consider filling most with love and mirth.
Decide if you are desolate, alone;
Contrariwise, consider that your birth
Developed yet another side of known.
