Nature's Birth
Among the hollowed ash
Stood a bowl of shattered glass.
From within its clear clutch
Stood some ferns long and lush.
And rising above the floor
Grew a sapling, young at its core
Reaching toward the sky
Its leaves ceiling high.
And from its root did bloom
Acres of the new flowering womb
Curling together, left
All that remains unexpressed
Are the remnants of glass.
Fallen from the sky to crash
Shattered of the great stone-ground
To learn and to grow all around
Covering the planet in green
Opening the world to a new type of serene.
Not the type that's desolate and alone
Enable Ginger
But a new type with the music of life made the fragments of what's grown.
