I wish to acknowledge my sources. The "ursprung" of the work of art Brings to mind the source of the Nile, A field of knee-high grass rippling In a gentle breeze beneath a clear sky, Water springs up from the ground To begin its journey to the sea. Beyond the hill-crest white turbulent Clouds rise majestic and threatening, Carrying moisture borne by the wind From far away; who knows where The cycle begins and ends?
