Song of the Earth

Is there any sunshine in the rain?

The cherry blossoms whose petals glow in season,

Sing a number of dull pink in the midst of a summer storm.

Potential buds, eager to sprout, forced away from resonance

The flow of nature´s current picks up the soil that once confirmed the sprouting of new life.

But the crying gods kept the turmoil. 


On the brink of disaster,

a harmonious tune stretches across the gray sky, a rainbow

Its notes conducting the rain, paving a pathway for the sun to pierce through the thick, foggy clouds

And this tune carries through

Playing so that all life can listen and learn. 


Now the earth can display its symphony, 

All unease conformed into tranquility.

Lilacs and roses now concentrated with dark tints of purple and red

All life sings the same note of peace.


The author's comments:

The message behind this piece is that often you have to endure adversity (the storm) in order to reach a goal or have positive outcomes. Now I walk home from school and I have been observing the nature around me. It is beatutiful to stop and look at nature once in a while, but these flowers and diverse plants couldn have blossomed without rain and storms.
