Out he walked Into the blue Into the land Where the oceans knew His name His past He had come home At long last He walked in the fields That had held him When he was small Taking care of him, feeding him Fending for him, teaching him The rules of the place where he was to go The place they called Earth Where animals thought themselves supreme And reigned over all that was blue or green But now he had returned from there Taken his lessons to reflect on them here To sit in the place where he had once learnt And pass on his knowledge back to the earth From which, there will another arise His equal in all aspects, but wise Because he will have the teachings of his predecessor Along with the knowledge he will gain on his own And will use it to restore peace to the Earth
