Creed

Lovely show, unto your games

Behold me happily given up;

Others have their goals, their aims,

For me, to live is already enough!

 

A likeness when all’s said and done,

All things show my sense has moved,

Of the infinite and one,

That I ever living proved.

 

Such a picture book to read

Is my life’s remuneration,

Since the everlasting, the seed,

Has in me its habitation.

 

Hermann Hesse
