WE

We planted where petals fell

Because we looked into the skies,

not the wells

We harvested where scavengers dwell

Our focus was on living things

not grimy death

We plucked where gods ate

We said to ourselves we deserve the cream

not just a dream

We laid where others fell

Our hope was in the Resurrection

not the intermission

We laughed where others wept

Our tear drops were for joy

not sorrow's toy

We floated where Marines sunk

The sea was our skating ring

not a living thing

We lived, we grew, we aspired

We transcended, we ascended

We acquired, we maintained

And so shall it remain

We are who we are

The awakening after the dream!
