Villanelle of the earth
War made itself felt known
may be through for instance
children hurting one another
or something to such a point.
Now, each man or woman learned
to fend for himself/herself:
First maybe using a stick or stone
and if the conditions warrant
the world would move forward;
still tide rises, tide falls.
Love is now the yearn
we aim to build home, have done here and there
sometimes leading us build huts and sometimes
flat houses?.
Yes, aim to build mansions and pavillions - thus to come
by something on the ways?.
Yes, we will later on use our homes to sleep and rent
and relax and never falter or give up until something
bread is joined with fun in advance?.
