Knowledge, a gem, in mind’s deep well,
Polished by wisdom’s radiant spell.
But practicality, a steady hand,
Guides through life’s intricate, shifting land.

Morality, a compass, pure and bright,
Yet world’s complexities dim its light.
So know your kin, their hearts and mind,
For greed and guile, you’ll often find.

Balance, a dancer on a moonlit stage,
Graceful movements, turning every page.
Harmony, a chorus, sweet and deep,
Where souls connect, their secrets keep.

Like a sculptor, shaping life’s design,
With gentle strokes, both rough and fine.
Imperfections, part of nature’s art,
Accepted wholly, a healed heart.

Not righteous stance, but empathy’s grace,
Reflects the beauty on every face.
For in each soul, a universe resides,
With kindness sown, love multiplies.

Beware the shadows, where demons dwell,
Wrong company, a living hell.
Discern the true from false with care,
For trust misplaced, can leave you bare.

So let us seek balance, with mindful art,
Knowledge and wisdom, playing their part.
Practicality, a sturdy, guiding light,
In harmony’s embrace, we’ll find our flight.

Destiny’s hand, unseen, yet strong,
Weaves through our lives, right or wrong.
Fortune’s favour, a fickle friend,
On whose grace our hopes depend.
