What can we say of the song of the ley -
Sounding so faintly, and so far away?
Echoing hauntingly over the land -
Ever elusive, yet ever at hand.
Song of the joys and the sorrows of earth,
Singing of death, yet constant rebirth -
The face of the ley may change over time,
But the song of the ley is eternal, sublime.
Life in its fulness, and death with its pang,
Love of the mother, and carnivore's fang -
Life in entirety, darkness and light,
Song of all gentleness, song of all might.
Earth is the Mother, and Earth is the Force -
Earth of all life the umbilical Source -
Earth is the Cycle, as night follows day,
And the song of the Earth is the song of the ley.
Mountains and continents, oceans and seas -
Hurricane, earthquake and soft summer breeze -
Song of all being, to time without end,
Song of all songs the ultimate blend.
Taking, transforming the crude works of man -
Weaving them into its intricate plan -
Whether the knowledge be little or great
The song of the ley makes the crooked way straight.
