IN AN ENDLESS SEA OF INFINITE DESOLATION
AMIDST, GALAXIES, STARS, AND BLACK HOLES
A SOLITARY PINE TREE CLINGS TO LIFE
ON THE EDGE OF A PRECIPITOUS DEATH-DEFYING CLIFF
EMBRACING THE GLORIOUS SUN
BRAVING THE FEARLESS WIND
WELCOMING THE LIFE-GIVING RAIN
SUCH IS THE BENEVOLENCE OF MOTHER EARTH
WHY THEN WASTE THIS PRECIOUS GIFT OF LIFE?
WITH ALL THE GLORIOUS WONDERS, STILL TO DISCOVER
AND PURPOSES YET TO FULFILL
FROM THIS TINY SPECK OF LIFE-GIVING SAND
LIFE BLOSSOMS WITH NATURE GRACIOUS BENEVOLENCE
A MIRACLE, NO DOUBT, THIS CYCLICAL COSMIC DANCE,
HAPPENING, EACH MOMENT, WITHIN THE REALM OF TIME BE GRATEFUL, WAKE UP AND CHERISH THIS BLESSED LIFE
FOR, THE END OF OUR JOURNEY IS ONLY A FEW BREATHS AWAY
LIKE DEWDROPS THAT VANISHES ALL TOO SOON…
