Passion's Fruit

Passion comes from life
with winds both gentle and strong
and trees leafy and bare,
with wild creatures old and young
and joy and sorrow's tear.

Nature's bounty is passion's fruit
nourishing both earth and human
continuing life's existence
with a force of two,
who come in passion
to feel oneness
and join with compassion
on this sacred land.
