The transformation of humanity
 Is not so hard or long:
 Mother starts it at the soul’s birth.
 “Ma, Ma,” the soul cries out at the
 first breath-inducing birth-smack.
 “Mother, may I,” It asks as
 merrily-romping child.
 “Mother, I’m leaving,” it says with the
 adventurousness of youth.
 “I am for myself alone,” the young adult
 brashly states.
 “Ma, you are my Golden All” comes last, in the
 full, ripe wisdom-maturity of age.
 Reality points its finger and spins the wheel,
 Again and again.
 When the lessons are blended
 And remembered,
 The wheel stops.
