Share sea and wind, salt and air, joined by life
From heavenly womb, dare to care, combined
With height, to take a stand without sad strife
Of soul laid bare, tender-fare – humankind.
Pair sun and moon, light and dark, add far stars
From trinity flung, dare to flare, ignite
The skies, to make a prayer without a war
Of souls who’ve erred, hindered wear – savage plights.
Bear land and soul, flesh and self, mingle breath
From cosmical birth, once aware, combust
Man’s heart, to wake a state without a death
Of soul who dared to lair – on earthy dust.
Sea and sun, land and wind, moon and soul fit
Right in, when opposites unite true writ.
