THE NATURAL WAY by Malia


 "THE NATURAL WAY"
by Malia

We are

Different fingers

Of the very same hand.

We are

Born pure,

Then forgotten.

I am the flowers

And the river.

Mother Nature

What can I give her?

She is all I cannot be.

She is all I once was.

The children of men

Have twisted her personage

Until her portrait no longer

Is recognizable.

The children of men

Have twisted themselves

Trains, cars, factories!

Nothing but awful galleries

Of memories, a eulogy

For the truth, the natural way.

And yet, it all runs through us.

Like our blood, and the breeze

And the sunlight’s dappled stream,

Like a rope, but not a chain,

Sustenance, our meat and grain.

It is One, and we are It.

We are One, and separate.
