The falling rain was cold today.
I saw clouds race over the horizon.
What matters to me is hard to explain.
I value friends and people who care.

Last night I was tired again.
I began to sleep once the lights went out.
Nothing bothered me and I have no regrets.

My responsibilities are not a burden.
I live in the shadow of beautiful mountain.

I walk humbly on this sacred planet.
