The best law is the golden rule
The best joke – in which you are the fool
The best science that is practiced today
Extracting sunshine from a cloudy day.
The best music is the laughter of a kid
The best medicine – not to blow off one’s lid
The best maths is multiplying the joys
And dividing the sorrows of other girls and boys.
The best vehicle – the breeze that carries a song
The best feeling – to know you’ve done no wrong
The best stimulant – the approval in someone’s eyes
The best gift – to understand and be wise.
The best food that one can ever see
Is the milk of human kindness, than can be got free
And the best way to reach these sublime heights
Is to go slowly, and not by hasty flights..
