Faith
Is there an isle, in an ocean blue,
Where decency remains,
Where men walk nude and women too,
And no one sane complains?
Is there a village, perching high
Above the clouds that rain,
Whose village elders rarely lie
Or deal for worldly gain?
Oh, there are islands plentiful
And villages sans measure,
Where decency is still the rule
And honesty's a treasure!
The ones, who still are decent, they,
In humble actions, trust.
And those, who still are honest, speak
But are unheard by us.
"Should we have faith or should we seek
For evidence?" you ask.
"It's faith that gives us eyes to seek
And patience for the task."
