Enlightenment

It is a dead branch that breaks, those with life bend       Bend

Taking from one\'s own mouth feeds two with joy          Lend

In pain one discovers who one is                           Comprehend

In poverty one becomes rich                                Expend

A treasure must be lost to be found                        Condescend

In kneeling one is worshiped                                Descend

By facing fear one learns courage                                              Transcend

With eyes of charity one sees clearly                       Amend

There is no gain without a cost                                                         Spend

The sun must die to be reborn                               Wend
