Their feelings were musical. Their emotions were a beautiful design. They did not know it. So they rarely sang. They rarely felt. They just toiled. But when they sang, we listened, and this is what we heard…
“Up in the morning with the sun,
Driven by the earth to find our place,
The promise of fulfillment
Is preceded by pain.
We prove our strength by how we strive,
Our axes bring us safety
We work hard because we’re told
There’s no way to fulfillment
But by being number one.”
