Eternal Symphony**
*Dawn's Embrace*
Dawn's light dances, blooms,
Nature's breath in vast rooms,
Life's rhythms softly glow.
*Tender Moments*
Birth's cry to sunset's grace,
Canvas of moments trace,
Laughter, tears embrace.
*Sacred Journey*
Trials and triumphs array,
Dreams where shadows play,
Life's verse in sacred rhyme.
*Cherished Echoes*
Fleeting, mundane, grand and shy,
Pulse of existence, dreams fly,
In each breath, life's reply.

One of the most famous poets, Nezahualcoyotl, was a sage-king who opposed the cult of human sacrifice associated with Tezcatlipoca, God of the Smoking Mirror, and favored Quetzalcoatl, the Feathered Serpent. Flowers and feathers were the favorite offering of the Plumed Serpent. Moreover, flowers and feathers are a metaphor for poetry. Individual words, scattered petals, the down of tropical birds. The temples of blood sacrifice could be transformed into temples of flower and song. A sublimated offering to the Heart of Earth and the Heart of Sky encapsulated in the Classical Nahuatl kenning for poetry: in xōchitl in cuīcatl, meaning, "the flower and the song." The following poem is part of a longer work, and is in a state of flux, so take the waters as they flow:
