Parting the meadow (A job for both sides of the brain)
Location
There's a road in the meadow
parting it left and right
a side where the sun rises
and the other for the moon at night
and now I have to choose
the side I belong to
"how do I choose?" says the weary brain
the heart murmurs "Even I don't know what's true."
And so we all sighed
and closed our eyes
laying in the middle
of the part in the meadow
The moon and sun each rose and fell
and then we knew that all is well
for the road in the meadow isn't a part at all
it's a guiding light, not a wall
the right is full of chances and creativity
dreams and thoughts and spontaneity
and the left, however still
can procure discovery
through math and logic and scientific inquiry
so why not smell and feel and even wallow
in the scent and beauty of flowers from both sides of the meadow
follow the road that leads you to the stars
and lets you live the best of both worlds from Earth to Mars
