As light becomes life's serenade

Come rise up from the dust

Mother of earth

Mother of stone

Bring us life from the rust

Our tree of life, so soft and warm

You are the color of energy

The life of a thousand wildflowers in spring

And every moment your gardens flood my mind

Though you have become but a ghost

Burning black ribbons of candlelight

Making me a cold fire tonight

A poignant, profound song of embers

Lifting in crescendos as flowered fireworks

Burst from death’s seed sown in meadow’s wild

All that remains is the colored glass 

Glass fragments that reflect the sunlight

Illuminating cold stones with rainbow essence

There in the stillness when my soul sleeps

And dreams in darkness will finally fade

As light becomes life's serenade

[The dark story]

Oh Lovely!! Nature is beautiful indeed but your words accentuates her beauty. Here, Nature's palace felt like a tomb and a temple, wherein when my feet touch its laps, a renewed life energy flows in through me. You make it feel so profoundly with your words.
"Burst from death’s seed sown in meadow’s wild "
What a stupendous line. Just left me mesmerized.
