Which make me feel forever
Which connect me
To the workings of the Earth
To the stars beyond the clouds
As if the horizon
Reached out to infinity
A moment like this one
When I first awakened
To my connection
To everything
Connecting me
To all that is
To all I need
A secret:
Then the wave comes
And I wonder anew
At the interplay of moving water and sand
The rivulets and eddies and smaller waves
I find the rhythm of being
Of a battle
And a castle
Shrouded in grey
But
For fires
Raging
And my loved one
There
Life threatened
Where every thundering wave
Takes me back
Ten thousand years
To a time before industry
To a time before capital
To a time before government
To a time before language
To a time before consciousness
To a time before life
Grandiose nature
Makes me feel
Very, very
Small
There are stars
Beyond blue sky
Uncountable stars
And planets circling
Most of them, and
Some with moons like ours
