Everything participates
the wind, the rain
the earthquake
Like an earthworm tilling
so many things doing
their own things
creating a harmony

as the great feed the small
and man is so very small
an eyeblink in 4.5 billion years
with the force of gods about
and so very dependent
in our independence
Life is a gift

bringing new awareness
Life is a spring
bringing new hope
to send up prayers upon
or to spurr work to progress with
for the turkey and the sage hen
for the humane and the cognizant

The forefront of being
is a reality of many things
a huge complex web
of interdependence
with niche players
and generalists

All is replenished
the wind, the rain
Life is a spring
bringing new hope
in a huge complex web
of interdependence
