David Taylor - Creation

moon shines bright o'er the land
and ripples bright beyond the sands
stars light gleams of light beyond
this fallow earth which turns with song
and time proceeds in space
as life in air received with grace
and water joins all the lands afar
reflects that light in each earth bound jar
until tolls the time for jars to crack
in midday heat of rising suns
waters flow as clay returns to earth
joins its source returns to birth
light continues on
as life sings with light's eternal song.

David Taylor
