Wonder evermore
The sky's so ugly and beautiful
The earth so dry and fruitful
The wonder-er is one such a fool
The wondering makes him truthful
A Wise man learns on forever
And endeavoring little he discovers
A world in which many are clever
A great amount is still to be covered
A priceless jug of wine we store
The act is to pour if we want more
The crisis of a land we endure
A world as this we wonder of evermore
