Eternal Beauty Of Hills

Strange intensity of imagination
conjures whole model of the universe
my brain designs based on my education
to reprogram weird effects of the curse.
Network indicator lights on computers
blink soft green-gold with each pulse of quick signals
like fireflies that flash in warm evening dusk
as they drift slow among trees in my backyard.
I love the way ranges of mountain peaks
wrinkle jagged on satellite images,
contours formed by constant flowing of water
that erodes hills into river-bright valleys.
My ancestors lived in every lush valley
Egypt to Norway and Scythia to Scotland
so I dream eternal beauty of hills
that shimmer under eternal blue sky.
Gather with me on the lush river shore,
bringing food to share at our potluck feast,
so we eat apples to the seed-thick core
and evolve to human from hungry beast.
The heroes of every myth ever told
are now characters our brains dream alive
whose successes and failures guide our way
through the waste land to create paradise.
Share the story of your life at our feast
so we can learn how you perceive the world
which helps us see the complex world more clear
and design accurate world view we all share.
We live together in every lush valley
in spacious lands around our spinning globe
so we dream eternal beauty of hills
that shimmer under eternal blue sky.
