I come to tell you
not to worry
Pink clouds carry on as they should
Winds carry seeds
Ice melts
Fire burns
The Earth cares for herself
Human, you are no less mysterious than
the salmon
You both work so hard
only to reach death
The chain is unbroken
You see yourself as separate from Nature
This is a fallacy
You are Nature as are we
Each is consumed in the end
only to live on
as nourishment for some other beast
If this be cause to furrow your brow
please know that your suffering is not mandatory
Choose it if you wish
or consider for a moment the glory
‘Please know your suffering is not mandatory.’ Lovely! Thank you.
I love the way you evoke nature and the tension between humans and the world they don’t understand. Raven is lovely ~
