Open


With eyes and ears like the mouths of caves,

With warm hearts and the courage of the brave,

We begin to stave off the ignorance encompassing us

And rinse it away, down the drain, clearing the rust.

Restoring the trust in a world yet unseen,

Understanding's suds serve but to clean,

Like sweet rains sweeping over a dusty Earth

And fill us with Life's hidden mirth.

Let the worth of openess be known to all,

And let the closedness of minds be swept over falls.

Standing tall, our hearts will soar among the gales together

And we will float down the shared river forever.
