Everything lives
Everything dies
It's all part of the cycle
Of life.

Wonderful air
Beautiful nature
You wonder
How can anything like this be harmed?

Fires rage
They grab you with
Their sunset colored hands
And squeeze you till there's no air.

Destruction and havoc wreaks
Upon the land
But underneath
It's hidden.

That wonderful place
You're wondering about
Is gone
Because of this curse.

All those years, you'd
Wondered how something
Like that can be so
Awesome.

But the truth is
Beauty attracts
Death
So it can never be safe.

What you don't see
Is that
Everything is
All right.

Because underneath
That charred burned place
Is
Life.

Seedlings push
Their way
Out of
The ground.

Birds come back
Insects fly
The plants
Are bursting with life.

And after
A year
Everything's back
To normal.

And you wonder
How
Can
This be true?

Well
You
See
Wonderer.

Everything lives
Everything dies
It's all part of the cycle
Of life.

It
Is
Called
Rebirth.
