Fragments To Remember
I sit upon a rock
thinking, with the lush forest around me
and I am weeping great spirit.
This lush forest is burning down, burning down
and I can do nothing to stop it.
I fear for the animals __ the eagles and sparrows
and all the creatures running
and what of my wildflowers growing and the trees ?
Every beautiful thing will soon be gone, gone
and I must gather up fragments to remember
before the ruin_ Will nature overcome this devastation ?
O, great spirit let me hear your song and flute one more time,
then, I must go or be part of the ruin . . .
