Come

Come to the verge of the water
Gaze across the expanse.
Feel the pull and the power
Of the endless skin of blue.
Where does the sky meet the sea?

Come to the height of the mountain
Staring across the lands.
Brace your mind and body
Against the tug and push of the wind.
Where do the roots of the mountains lay?

Come to the midst of the desert
Survey for miles in every direction
See the rain falling like dust
See the rolling hills like waves.
Where does the sea lie?

Come to the edge of the forest
Inhale the scent of many trees
Feel the rough bark brush your fingers.
Hear the cry of many creatures.
What dwells 'neath the green canopy?
