Sea asks
- why are we here?
    
                  Sky, she always answers
                  - because the tree called to us
                    he called to us for life and a home

endless Sea asks
- does he not feel enveloped?
  
                 and Sky, she always answers
                 - my darling:

         A tree amidst a forest can know no bounds
         as everywhere around him
         there is only more of him
        
         he is one with himself and his earth.

Sky, her
one eye cratered white
the face of the moon
the other blazing gold
the reflection of the sun

she reaches down to touch the Sea

                      she whispers:
                      Time is our mother,
                      she sends us forward with hope

and clutching his hands,
they dance around the tree
wondering the wonders of the world
into existence under the stars.
