Nature's Newborn: Re-written
I am a river, and my heart,
an ever-changing stream,
Ripples clean me part by part,
and so joy reigns in me supreme.
As a redwood firmly stands,
through seasons of change, so slow,
Hugging the Earth, with gnarled hands.
day by day, I too steadily grow.
As the sky awaits the gale,
to pass by, it gives no greeting.
Calmly, I face the challenging hail,
my fears quietly retreating.
As the mountains' summits rise,
on the land, old and still they are.
So do I, with time's guidance wise,
Teaching me the orbits of stars so far.
As the early spring, with lush grass,
adorns the surface of the bald lands.
I wear the tiara of love, pure as glass,
Carried in the universe's gentle hands.
