Essence of Turning

Life is a continuous cycle from the greatest to the smallest of all levels.  It is an exchange that always provides for the greater good even with all the bad along the way.

Essence of Turning
by Michael Romani

The essence of turning oceans
Into life giving rain
Pulls at our human emotions
Like a lyrical refrain

Without this watery exchange
The continents would be barren
Lifeless, twisted and somewhat strange
And, of course, there would be no one caring

Swirls of clouds offer their diversity
As day becomes night that becomes day
This is our earthly legacy
That passes as life's only known way

We thank our lucky stars for this
That our earth isn't a lifeless rock
And praise God above for all that we would miss
If there were no such things of which to talk

Our world was born from cosmic dust
Then washed by storm from above
Giving us our legacy of diamonds and rust
Showered as blessings with God's love
