Earth’s Smoldered Embers

O heavenly sky
Crystalline diamonds you cry,
And when they hit the light just right
They crack…

O serene lake
Languid waves you quake,
And when they pour onto the shore
They foam…

O salubrious ground
Alluring flowers you found,
And when they pray to the sun’s rays
They bloom…

Now all of these three
Can clearly see
Man’s rancor…

And when the rainbow,
A bridge o’er the lake below,
Formed from the colors of the ground’s flowers
Reflected off of the sky’s diamond showers,
Is clutched by man’s touch
It fades…
