Earth Prophecies

Tree prophecy:
The Great Ones shall fall,
and our Children grow in slavery,
'til all is Dust,
and our Seeds are lifted from the Seas
and nurtured by the Stars --
then, shall we live again;
and remember.


The Reaper swings the blade
and severs life from life:
Do you see my tears, Grandfather Tree?
The Old Ones knew some day
we’d sever Light from Light:
Our darkening land fulfills that Prophecy.


Listen...
Wind pauses
Surf slows
Crow ponders
Hawk knows
Cloud frowns
Bear sniffs
Tree sighs
Earth shifts.


Caldera chants:
quite soft, quite low
...Too soon the Dance;
too late the Crow...
The lantern swings
on a lifeless bough
...The night wind brings
a fattened cow...
Caldera's breath
foretells its Change:
Too soon the Death;
too late the Rain.




Moonlight pausing,
sighing to see
a night so Dark
that even She
must careful touch the Land;
Ocean tossing,
unable to rest
on shores so Dark
that He, at best,
must shield to reach the Sand.
