Nature's Judgment

Over the horizon I watch the sunrise.
I sight a cage where the ocean, restful, lies.
For bars I search, but none I find,
and steel girders, they do not bind.

But yet the cage is there, I know.
For there is another place to go.
A place where nature thrives in tune,
With song sending sea towards the moon.

Towards a lonely boulder, I boldly stroll,
And up I climb, with ambitious soul.
Although small rock, each step I fight,
To reach the summit, of modest height.

As I grasp and grapple, my anger drives,
me towards the sky, my freedom strives.
Through the clouds, hail starts to rain.
I shall not make conquest without the pain.

But yet the rock I conquer, still.
The boulder's cracks, the heavens fill.
And I stand tall, to nature's side,
Still knowing there are faults I hide.

One day I know I shall find a way,
To that gloried place where I'll lay my grave.
But I shall not leave, until I complete,
The dance that sways to the oceans' beat.
