Elemental Ring Chain

Grey vapour sated clouds extend their chain 
Of rainy bursts and torrents at a glance
The hoarse throat whine from canyons weren’t in vain
As green shoot tillers bow to circumstance 
Rush petals weave a chain of svelte romance
On river banks where oak beam timbres fall 
Coy sika deer among his peers may crawl
Beyond that wetland canvass oiled  at birth
An embryonic chain encodes its wall
With nascent human trails to cosmic mirth
