The Most Beautiful Poem in the World
Verdant glens as lush can be
Imperial, the Pinus tree
Its peak o’erlook a kingdom grand
With rolling gorge untouched by hand
Where creatures tiny, wild things broad
Rattle without gall or laud
Reaping equilibrium
So neither is there lesser sum
To recognize this paradise
Abandon wickedness of vice
Through cosmos infinite we hurl
With gratitude, hold dear our world…
