Chants of forefathers ever enchant these halls,
calm the winds, steel the hearts of the people.
Each time the land breathes in a dawn, unveils
the toil of cloven granites and honed slates,
born of the struggle between two equals:
perseverant mind and unyielding stone,
a pursuit to cause, and mainstay of stillness.
The night that made them pause is almost gone.
The wait now condensed to a single moment.
A flash of acceptance for the unknown,
fresh ease brightening alike the dew and insight,
breeze of release from what’s coming, and what’s past.
The clash resumes. Opposed sides collide anew,
in concord of efforts, each playing their part,
to witness as one life’s storytelling might.
