Fading Forests

There was a time so long ago
When Sky
Loved Earth and Earth loved Sky
But their love couldn't find
A way to embrace
Earth looked at Sky with Love
Sky sent his passion to the Earth
Yearning to Join

In time Earth's love began to bloom
And Trees
Grew
Tall, arms to the Sky
Earth sent up her love
Sky sent the wind
Trees grew so Love could be
Leaves and branches met with the Wind
Love became dance
Danced and danced
In love they danced
And passion soon became a Storm
Fire and Rain
Water raged down all over the Earth
Oh Ecstasy
Life was conceived
Oh my love, my love
Finally peace I've found
Exhausted
Earth and Sky fell asleep
Stillness and silence reigned

When lovers Earth and Sky
Came back from
The far land of dreams
Earth pregnant with Life
Gave birth in bliss
Life
Took all shapes and forms
Each one expression of their love
Love boundless love
And so the story goes
Until We became part of all
The greatest of gifts
Be born a man
Aware of the love of Earth
Awaken in the dream of Sky
Given the task
Care for all that lives and breaths
Conscious expression of their love
Free as the wind
Soon our freedom became pride
Pride cannot love
Pride needs to own
What you own you cannot love
What you can't love you'll destroy
Pride
Is destroying our hearts
And Love
Like the forest
Fades
