Borders
Look at the world with fresh eyes of the morning
See it with the dew of the day
Lines stretch and encircle
The creatures that live and stay
From the sea we watch
The ebb and flow of the tide
The sand worn and eroded
Caressed by waves that abide
Look, Avatar! At the heavens above
Sun ripples its colors as it sets into the night
From warm day to cool dusk
To paint the sky with indigo twilight
Do you see the lines that crease and form?
Lines bridge, touch and play
Heaven borders Earth
And Night caresses Day
A child is born into the world
And a man's light has fade
Male joins with female
And light rests with shade
Look at the borders around you Avatar
Cross the worlds that you see
Become black and white
Become a small brook and a tall tree
Die and live again and again
babe to youth to man
Grow with love and strength
And be swept away by death's own hand
Touch the lines that touch you
Avatar my friend
Cross the borders that cross you
Forever until time's end
