Restoration

Internalize the beauty, it 
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 sweet Gaia praise you with her sigh. 

The riddle in the middle 
contemplates the truth of man 
for therein lies the balance all men seek. 
Do not abandon Nature 
but accommodate Her 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 
For truth shall give a purpose 
to the prophets 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 with your mind; 
The search for truth is ancient 
and the Pharaohs did neglect 
all signs the mighty Tigress left behind. 

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

Now 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!!
