2. When I was young
Mountains were mountains
And
Waters were waters

3. I became older
And
Mountains were
No longer mountains
Waters
No longer waters

4. Thinking I had learned
Everything
They were explained
Away
And separation
Reigned

5. Names for everything
Placed them
In their places
Nothing and everything
Remained the same

6. The names giveth
Impression and illusion
That wisdom is
Accomplished
And knowledge
Achieved

7. Is this the
Truth of the world
When I hold a
Flower
Is it then before
You a flower
Or something else

8. Not yet do you
And I
Again
See that
Mountains are
mountains
And
Waters are waters

9. The wind blows
And then
Stops
Before again being
Wind
