Totality of turbulent time trends 
swift as swirling waves along silver streams 
that mold my body from mud, light, and air, 
so Spirit of Earth can wake in my brain 
and sense this planet of electric gems 
pulsing with passion of particle pain. 

When the whooping crane glides over the bay, 
outstretched wings fluttering over blue breeze 
with easy ebullience of tense grace, 
I feel Spirit of Earth awake in flight 
of vigilant attention to explore 
landscape of time with curious respect. 

Riding in back of the Mercury car 
that glides country roads in yellow oak woods, 
I watch herd of horses in broad fenced field 
express Spirit of Earth through galloping 
gleefully free with glissando of grace, 
remembering their journey around the world. 

When worshippers in the Adventure Church 
gather at River Styx on Sabbath Eve 
that flows by the empty Round Table Throne, 
which emanates Spirit of Earth in man 
who wields authority as God in flesh, 
wild boy with Wand of Zambor runs and sings. 

Though hundreds of power-hungry men reign 
as kings or presidents of nation-states, 
contending with each other to control 
resources of land and labor of workers, 
the one unknown emperor of the world 
embodies Spirit of Earth in Dream Cave. 

Grandmother lays white straw hat on the pillow, 
then bakes large apple pies with cinnamon 
for grandchildren to eat at the round table 
where they all drink hot chocolate and cheer 
Spirit of Earth awake as Mother Nature 
who cares for all the children of the world. 

When corrupt institutions of the nation 
fail their missions of helping citizens 
establish self-reliant businesses, 
the Savior manifests Spirit of Earth 
to organize angry rebels with roles 
availing their talents to create good. 

I feel Spirit of Earth fuel my soul, 
animating mortal body with power 
to construct empire of organized games 
where everyone creates good with their hands, 
earning reward for building from waste land 
paradise of fruit trees where all can eat.
