"Mountains And Springs"

Mountains and springs
Spoke to me within a dream
One from another
And different all the same
Mountains and springs
Life and then dream.

We share the moon
Sun and the stars
Connected between
The things that we dream
Upon mountains and springs
And most other things
We all know as beauty
Even through screams
Yet the world remains
Though tattered and torn
A shred of the magnificent tapestry
Created first of mountain and spring
Life and then dreams
One from another
Yet different all the same
Mountain and spring
Silence then scream.

Seeking the heavens
Sapphire and dark
One from another
We forget the lesson green
Of mountain and spring
Breath before song
In the unity of things
So different
Yet all the same
Spoken in dreams
Of sapphire and dark
Released one after the other
Yet all missing their mark
So busy seeking the heavens
They grounded their ark
On mountain and spring
Drunk and then dreams
Of what may have been
In the revival of things
A lesson of green
One from another
Breath and then scream
Mountains and springs
Death and then dreams.
