Sacred Harvest

Would that you could live on the fragrance of the earth

Like an air plant sustained by ever-flowing light

But if you must take life to feed your very worth

Let each act be worship a ritual in the night

In every life that's taken in every tender breath

The blood of beast and blossom fuels the tree of death

Yet through these sacred cycles our souls find their rebirth

A hymn to nature's bounty our bond with Mother Earth

Let your table be an altar where the pure in silence lie

In forests deep and meadows wide where innocence must die
