So Libra
So Libra
Scale of deities and Zodiac
Balancing our hopes
And green renewal
Giving birth
The way you were birthed
From the fables of the earth
Imposed on man's ignorance
So Libra
For fruit you bring the ripening leaves
For beauty you show the dying trees
And in the face
Of nature fruiting and death
The bees come laden
With the hope of spring
Their belly golden
With uncopulated pollen
And butterflies
Coming home again
All things balanced
Between the winter and the rain
