Tears of the Universe

The very first rain,
like the tears of the universe, they 
do not know if they’re for 
joy or sorrow.
Lonely in flight, they meet at common destiny, 
and form that noble body
we call Ocean.
Still, perfectly still, 
it has no reason or motive,
so it waits…

The very first Winds, like the breath of a newborn,
pure zeal-it lives for life, constantly 
curling, twirling, 
whooshing through the air!
Searching for some greater paradise, the
epitome of itself.

Wind and Ocean bond by chance, 
and, gently, Wind brings Ocean home.
Listen to it breathe,
whispering, swishing onto the soft shores of Land,
and again…and again…and now-she has rhythm.

Land is young and angstful.
Alone- he looks out above Ocean and under Wind,
to where they marry;
Forever in sight, always out of reach, a 
place of untouched, distant beauty;
 a wall of rich sunburst,
painted with the colours of 
most magnificent, full emotion.
Land weeps…
