A tail slips out of a seed in soil.\u00a0
A droplet plops into the distant blue.
A cloud drifts into another’s embrace.
Mother Nature’s cycle of birth and rebirth.
The rise from the womb and the return to the earth.
The undeniable laws of beginning and end.
The knot which will never be loosened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A sprout springs up from rich, black dirt.
A ripple swells, revealing its form.
A blanket coalesces from wisps of moisture.
Mother Nature’s cycle of birth and rebirth.
The rise from the womb and the return to the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A sapling splits into stems of fuzz.
A curl on the tip sizzles white.\u00a0
A billow darkens and paints the land black.
The undeniable laws of beginning and end.
The knot which will never be loosened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A tree hardens into branches of leaves.\u00a0
A roaring wave bears a crushing threat.\u00a0
A thundering strato-form houses flashes of light.
Mother Nature’s cycle of birth and rebirth.
The rise from the womb and the return to the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yellowing leaves dry along brittle branches.
A collapsing wall of water churns white.
Heaven’s gates open to G-d’s ocean.\u00a0
The undeniable laws of beginning and end.
The knot which will never be loosened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Showering leaves shield a ripe pod.
Sizzling water climbs a sandy shore.
Empty, the clouds now part ways.\u00a0
Mother Nature’s cycle of birth and rebirth.
The rise from the womb and the return to the earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Earth feeds a settling seed.\u00a0
The failing aqua slides into the ocean’s embrace.\u00a0
The clouds brighten, along with the world.\u00a0
The undeniable laws of beginning and end.
The knot which will never be loosened.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A tail slips out of a seed in soil.\u00a0
A droplet plops into the distant blue.
A cloud drifts into another’s embrace.
Mother Nature’s cycle of birth and rebirth.
The rise from the womb and the return to the earth.
The undeniable laws of beginning and end.
The knot which will never be loosened.
A regimen set forth by G-d at a time of nothing but dust.
An unbreaking trust that ends with us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
