From the poem Stillness of Being:

Mind plots revolutions,

But inner being wants harmony.

Life came with music,

But world moves by agenda.

Childhood was a pristine dream,

But wisdom turned that into a project.

Ambitions vault our existence,

Energy seethes from our pores.

But we came with a faith,

Our elements beckon tranquility.

There is a more sublime state than success,

World wants tumult but soul seeks stillness.
