The Roots of Humanity
Covered in leaves, it’s roots hold the Ground steady
Like a tree, each leaf sprouts from the branches
Through the whirling winds, it get battered but never breaks
Linked together, across such leaps of time,
of space, of culture and of race
Vibrant blossoms bloom within places of windswept chaos
Even to share its shade among the weary
Burnt to the roots, when the world seems too bleak
Another takes hold rising above the brambles of mortal nature
The Roots of Humanity hold the Ground steady
