Analysis of Only Feel
Touch not Butterfly
Only watch and enjoy that
Since if you
Try to catch,
You will damage that
Observe not Love
Only feel and cherish that
Since if you
Try to understand
You will lose that
As the believing in God
Not the discovery of God
Believing is adoration;
It is above the limits
Discovery is science;
It is below the limits
