The Earth speaks to the sky
The air fights the trees
The willow cries
And the river flees
The fire rages on
The smoke hugs the cloud
The lightning stabs the ground
And the Earth is proud
The rocks are chiseled
The rain skydives
And the forests celebrate
The beginning of new lives
The tears flow down
The face of a broken soul
Longing to be free
Longing to be whole
They leave abruptly
Taking everything with them
Leaving behind the broken hearts
Of those who most overcome
The life left behind
Blossoms like never before
Because life and happiness
Is what they want to ensure
The trees are torched
Making way for the others to grow
The bodies lie still
And the strong souls show
With loss
Comes love
With loss
Comes life
