Ecclesiastes 12:1-8

With firmness, persistency
energy and temperance
with the dance of science
and the shine of the stars
with considerable perseverance
and fidelity to mankind
I am only a child
that looks out to the world
like an immense ball
of hard soil made of mood.

Who so did it, so wanted
and here I just observe
as an entered apprentice
and a humble servant
the beauties of the Universe.

Vanity does not elevate us:
we always have our feet on the floor
because Earth attracts us all.

Not to learn what is darkness
is not seeing the huge
amount of stars above our heads.
