Title: This Is Nature 

This is nature

We are trees

Luminant leaves of verdant green 

We are earthly

This is stone

From the soil we are grown

There's a river

Watch it flow

Experiences come and go

What is pleasure 

It is pain

Birth of fire and wind and rain

This is nature 

How things change

Not a word that can explain

Sight is setting 

Fading sun

Slowly fading back to none

-Ryan (me)

[Yimpa]

within the cosmos / always loving forever / to infinity

-GOD (you)

One of my favs: Robert Frost, “The Road Not Taken” 

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

 

Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

 

And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

 

I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

By STEVE MADISON

Life is a self-composing symphony; and its objective is to make the best performance ever, an infinitely emotive Tristan Chord. Music is the cosmic heartbeat of the will to live. The music of the spheres is the collective effort of every soul's note that produces the music of God. It's all of us or none of us. All for one and one for all. In order to play perfectly, we need to be united with the rest of the souls together so the Universe can play in perfect accord. That's the performance of life. A performance we're all destined to play. - THE MUSICAL THEORY of EXISTENCE.

I love the lyrics in this. A guy sang it at a ceremony I attended two years ago and I finally got a link to it after several of us hounded him for it.
