Living a prim life
laden with convention
overloaded with expectations
heavy with intention
Now in old age
stripped of life
nothing remains
limbs cut with a knife
Then a miracle comes
surrounded by streaks of light
time for rebirth
leaving the night
Swirled with regeneration
new leaves begin to grow
energizing light surrounds me
my spirit begins to glow
The land around me
changes from sand to grass
misty rain flows through the wind
a rainbow projects using rain drops as glass
Birds building a nest
songs in the air
small animals playing
all nature is aware
From death to life
there is no end
the circle continues to expand
filled with love and friends
