Earth is where we live, and a fertile bed
Stone irks where unwanted; yet marks the dead
Sand buries those we love for fun, then runs out of time
Cherry bears hardness within sweet flesh, and the promise of life
Mountain: daunting to climb, but moved by simple Faith, it's said
Pearl takes grit and irritation; reveals treasure on being opened
Bell rings out an alarm; and jubilation. End of the lesson.
