THE  HUMAN  RACE

Introduction
This short poem is an inducement to the human race to be active in the pursuit of the goals and objectives which would elevate their moral and ethical status over and above those of inanimate objects like the narcissus and the juniper. One of such goals is the Longing and the Love of God.

Translation
The sights of the garden may or may not be beautiful
The narcissus, unable to act, forced to watching is!

It does not appreciate the pleasure of movement
The very nature of juniper devoid of longing is!

Whatever is in the world is accustomed to submission
Every power of Man busy in pressing for his Longing is!

This speck remains incessantly ambitious of expansion
Not a speck but perhaps the constricted wilderness he is

                If he wills he can change the face of the garden
                This entity wise, clear-sighted and powerful is
