Eternal Cycles
In springtime frost cascades in gutters as
A thousand falling tears of shifting stone
Might fall when fleeting restoration has
In blushing flesh ensconced the sterile bone.
This flesh will melt like snowflakes into dust;
Such fragile microcosms must collapse-
But even ancient forests will combust
And grow from fragile shoots as ages lapse.
The changing drifts of continents are seen
To bounce, in slow eternal cycles' eyes;
In steady circles through the inky skies...
Such eternal cycles are never through;
Through all our changes, I'll always love you.
