By Maya Green
The wise chooses to live, not just to exist
Uses every moment, to the fullest there is
Avoiding the ovation, or pluming of the ego
Unlike the fool, who’s always on the show
A deodar be, a tall cedar and so proud
In the cold, and winds, providing shelter
To the needy, and to the indigent traveller
Such indomitable will, is a shining sword
Be that man, a blessed soul, a living being
A creative individual, of endless styles
Always be yourself, expressing your being
Not looking to duplicate, the others’ styles
So live up this life — always to the fullest
Not for show, but to experience richness
The wealth of the treasures, given to you
So unlock the chest, with the key given you
