We are
The black the white, the dark the light
Abyss or star apart so far
Yet within the human soul
A picture clear, a record whole.
Thou shalt not surely die
But thou shalt have knowledge
And thou shalt be even as the Gods.
Thou shalt know good from evil
Joy and grief, happiness and pain.
To man of clay, elusive things
The tools of God, like fairy wings
The heart, the mind, the human soul.
The test of life, to make us whole
To help us learn, to make us grow.
For, we are Gods in embryo.
Things
So many things to know,
So many things to learn,
So many promises to keep
Until we may return.
Until we find the door
To peace and joy and love,
Until we see the face
Of one who waits above.
When on desires of men
The final door will close.
Oh, then, the weary soul
Finds blessed sweet repose.
