More and Less

There is an echo in my head

There is a footprint where I tread

Shadows of the clouds soon fade

Angles of the sun

Are still waiting

**

Open enterprise:

The day

Look forward

with our clear eyes

Right on the prize

Working for

More joy

Less pain

*

More feeling how we want

Less suffering in vain

**

Double down

at every chance

No better plans

Build joy

Fight unforgivable pain

Find strength and work for

More joy and

Less pain

Don’t let it strain

Can’t deny these goals

Ringing in my brain

**

Comfort from the Earth

and the moving sky

The clothes on our back

that will get us by

Work on smiles

Discussion styles

Walking for miles

The echos of our soles

The echos of our souls

Can  help us achieve our goals

**

Can’t deny the need for joy

And the need to get rid of harmful pain

Find joy in what we do in life

Eliminate pain that has no gain

Or that unfairly hurts and strains

*

I might as well say it over again

and over again

We need more joy

Less pain

*

More joy

Less pain
