Description
Beauty isn't why I thriveNor, sustinence, why I'm alive
Ecstacy isn't why I live
Or gratification, why I give
Life is more than vanity,
More than happy,
More than me;
More than being right
Or having the last say,
More than having what you want
Right away.
Truth is more than words,
More than action,
More than acts;
It's more than an idea or thought,
Harder than iron, wrought;
Stronger than a metal shield,
More than what a soldier wields.
We are soldiers
One, two, three
Virtue, love, vitality
Name it what you want to see.
We are samurai,
San, ni, ichi.
Come count the stars.
Let us count them
One, two, three....

I love it! Very insightful. The rhyming is very artful, never seeming forced or gratutitous. Excellent piece.
