Without End?
All things earthly flowing together having no bounds
Without beginning and without end
Timeless beauty of the sky, reflecting the suns cry
A warm sun gives to the air, a breath which it will wear
Parted sea that gathers above, the heavens then share with love
Gentle air that caresses the rain, into valleys in which they drain
Rich earth that harbors ocean, with waters drenched in potion
Soils consume the perished, and seas that clouds once cherished
Life drinks from the soil, and cleanses the air in spoil
Sweet flora that swallow the air, with much beaut to ever share
As waters are clouded
The skies breath has been soured, and soils turned pungent to the tongue
A fierce sun burns with anger, its last lyric and verse unsung
A man with a stained sleeve gasps for air, as the earth cradles his knees
And there he finds in him, are all of these
