The Earth boils up
Billowing
Like clouds in the sky
Billowing
Like clouds in the sky
Depositing, Depositing, Depositing
On mounds and terraces
The beautiful stuff of Earth
Cools, solidifies, colours
One from Earth
One from Sky
I flow through lives
Passion and presence
Broken love
Leaving trails
Water comes from Earth
Builds the land
Deposits micro canyons
Some get the blues
They can’t condone
The forest stripped
To barest bone
Like here, where the fires burned
In Yellowstone
And the sky shone purple
Above the sun’s yellow, turned
But time itself wields no might
But for agents of change
Like the workings of nature and her creatures
