Restoration

Internalize the beauty which 
surrounds your sacred place; 
reach out and touch the breeze as it drifts by. 
Caress creation's origins 
imbued with nature's face 
and hear our Mother praise you with her sigh. 

The riddle in the middle 
contemplates the truth of man 
for therein lies the balance all men seek. 
Abandon not pure nature but 
accommodate the plan; 
it gathers all the glory of the meek. 

Rejoice in every choice you make 
that strips away the blight 
to bring about a righteousness revealed 
through truth of purpose found in great 
old prophet's perfect sight; 
one day the earth, in beauty, shall be healed. 

Yet danger often hovers like 
a lover in the pit 
where accidental evil waits its turn - 
so delve within yourself to find 
perfection in the fit; 
the prophet's oratory says to learn!! 

No matter what a label or 
a fable may direct, 
reach out to relish reason in your mind; 
this search for truth began before 
the Pharaohs did neglect 
all signs the mighty Tigress left behind. 

Through Persian and Egyptian reigns 
the truth has faced its fears, 
which forged the futile fumbling found today. 
Mankind has been immersed in loss 
and shed too many tears, 
no longer can we hope or even pray: 

So activate the intellect 
and then dissect each part 
of complex continuity we breed; 
let man and nature come as one 
to greet the final start - 
in restoration of our fertile seed!!
