Of Grass And Tree...
There is no world without trees.
There is no world without grass.
Tall and strong and whispering flutter on the wind,
Leaves and blades rustle and wisk,
The color clock of seasons shades the hour,
Holding the land steady,
Soil firmly in place and neither wind nor rain diminish that life,
From the deep earth they nourish,
All the beasts of the land live by their sacrifice.
The air itself is thus replenished,
The sky is balanced and whole in their presence,
The butterfly and bison,
The cattle and the sheep,
The grasshopper and spider,
The earthworm and the bear,
The chipmunk and the squirrel,
The wolf and the cougar,
The tiger and the lamb,
The owl and the man.
Of God who gave the gifted world to us,
Use it and them as we will,
God put our life in our own hands.
Balance lives, and all else falls.
