Perpetuity
The immutable nature of life
Let the fire burn.
What consumes can also feed;
Nothing can be lost.
//
Let the water flow.
What can cleanse also removes -
Nothing ever stays.
//
Let the air rise up.
What affects can still forgo -
Nothing can evolve.
//
Let the earth wander.
And when the ground below moves -
Everything remains.
