Slow moving tortoise
Shelled thunder bellows down
Hollowed dormant mountain slope
Horizon dream quakes
Fog rolls

Whole earth torn
Stripped mined worn
Old Mother spins continuous
Night's bright woven design
Over time's inveterate vertebrae

Tree rings echo
Passing seasons molten
Soils long cooled
Perpetual dawn
Reflects every sound

Rainbows chronicle
Steep lights descent
Solar Wind
Sun sifting hales
Morning glory borne
