Life's Tension

The sun blocked
By the leaves of the trees.

The river crashes
Over the sharp rocks.

The air smashed
Against the wings of the bird.

The flower pushes
Its roots through the dirt.

So the leaves
Can produce fruit.

So the rocks
Can be smooth agin.

So the bird
Can fly high above the clouds.

So the flower
Can grow strong.

And so the earth
Can keep moving
growing
and living.
