Come My Friend...
Come My Friend...
Come, friend, lets debate I and dear You
Come, friend, like beings of minds
Side by side like banks of a river
The subject being the river
Let's debate its course has it flows
Lets by keen meditation debate love
Its dregs, its pie, and its seam,
We shall praise
We shall mourn
We shall admire
We shall envy
We shall solace
We shall incite hope
We shall condemn
We shall mute when it floods
We cannot venture to debate what submerges us
(wise is he who debates with a fool?
Wise he who knows his chains...)
We cannot go beyond what we cannot see
We shall mute when it floods, however,
When it shall recede, and once again within
Our bound, we shall have the eyes to see
And the seal of Wise-men to debate once more
And much more, there will be more
For when much shall be left, much shall be brought
When the river recedes and is within our bind
Come, friend, lets debate I and dear You
Come, friend, like beings of minds
Side by side like banks of a river
The subject being the river
Let's debate its course has it flows
Lets by keen meditation debate love
