How do you know pure white,
if you have never seen freshly fallen snow?

How do you know pure light,
if you have never observed sun's glow?

How do you know pure darkness,
if you have never ventured deep below?

How do you know pure color's,
if you have never seen a rainbow?

How do you know pure happiness,
if in your mind, sadness can't bestow?

How do you know pure pain,
if you have never been within the throe?

How do you know pure serenity,
if you have never laid in a meadow?

How do you know pure despair,
if you have never experienced woe?

How do you know pure delight,
if you have never heard children's laughter flow?

How do you know pure acceptance,
if you have never bared your soul?

In the words of Plato,
"How do you know what you know?"
