HUMANS HAVE TALES APLENTY
Humans possess tales
becoming order's shadow,
Humans possess tales of homes breaking, lives that scatter,
Humans possess the heart's kin and kindred's
Kindred, gentle matter.
Humans possess tales of heaven and hell's lore,
Humans possess tales of auspicious aartis galore,
Humans possess tales of life's blaze,
Igniting flames to soar.
Humans possess tales of hidden life's
Wandering core,
Humans possess tales of warmth in their eyes to pour,
Humans possess tales in twilight's hour,
Of day's ending shore.
