Brief Flickers Of Sunlight

Brief Flickers Of Sunlight

On the solid geography of Earth,
where water streams among high bulging hills,
we organic creatures with dreaming brains
are brief flickers of sunlight on its surface,
flashing across its endless wind-swept spaces
for our flow of time on this spinning globe,
then we vanish into indifferent wind
that sings among the rocks of timeless hope.
I sat under this tree for seven days,
thinking I would vanish in blowing wind,
but I am still here, and you are still here,
and we are hungry with desire for love.
Since we will vanish in spinning of time,
let us make love to regenerate life
so our children may walk bountiful Earth
and feast on fruit of this tree we grow.
