The earth turns, rotating in solem darkness

With the shift of the sun, and the breath of the oaks

The black dirt soaks, and the grass gleams with flare

Spitting out an insightful stare

Do you dare to dream in a world of chance

Do you dare to break when people glance

The earth does not stop for people in trance

But sends a message in every creatures prance

The mountains roar, with fire and sage

We must move up in order to save

The winds howl, but we must hold fast

In order to keep our precious glass

Do you dare to win when the earth spins

Or is it in the presence of failure that you dare to sin

A blessing form above might bring you a dove

But you still wear a glove and squish the dove

Sending a chance away, may put you in a trance today

And yet you look away from creatures that prance

Beside you, in all of our dreams

Is a chance to learn

So get out of you gleam

And away from that trance

and step forth outside

Where old clay can become a new day!
