Finest flower of spirituality -
Dances metaphorically on every rock and tree,
Flows where the four winds breathe -
As your mind dissolves to be set free,
Hardened breeze of humanity -
Superior not of love and honesty,
Embattled violence rains such vain validity -
fertility god lives as willed to Nature's creed,
And man versus Nature still plants the seed,
Bringing crops of feed through weather and weed,
A breath of fresh air as the rains do come -
Smiling man of faith, bearing fruits or none.
The path of nature at times may be cruel -
But to sit and complain, a beggars fool.
One must work hard to gain some ground -
The light of the sun freshly shining on down.
As life can be rough and bitter, too -
Blue north'rs do blow and cut a man's face,
No matter the man, no matter the race -
But to work as a team can matter so much -
For man verses nature, still yet, we are touched.
