After all...

After all it is better,
yea it is better after seeing all,
to be ordinary,
to be clumsily this and that
and not too much heady into anything; 
yea, it is far better
to be modest
to be interested
and not go passionate
over this and that
and get your vision blind-folded;
yea it is far more better religion
to be humane, friendly with all,
be curious and appreciative
of all peculiarities
rather than being austere
exclusive
long-faced;
being average with contentment
far exceeds any manna from heaven;
common sense seems to be
far better than all books of old,
cold with the fury of gods;
the warmth of the human hearth
far exceeding any elixir of the divine;
the sight of the human
is far more soothing;
daily dawns in the rural yards
are much more assuring
of the happy sleep
of our toiled bodies
and our enjoying, thinking minds,
informing us of the world,
yea the daily dirty world
we live in
day in and day out.
sometimes the dirt is more homely
than the golden pour from heavens.
