Earth Trillium

silent shadows sing praise to 
gossamer lace the Spider webs

give shape O fearless Wolf,
the night awaits your merciless feast

listen, Heaven calls you Trumpeter Swan!
your voice unites the light above

silent, fearless with blinding light,
all the earth shall rise as one

brush off the sands of man,
whose global scourge shall 
wither once more

claim your righteous throne
as ages have before you

O beauty among the planets
no words remain describe
