It was Her biggest project –
To design Life on this planet.
And, the first thing that She did
Was strike off “failure” from the possibilities.
As She started, there was no looking back.
Her plan was that there was no Master Plan.
Everything that She made had a purpose.
From the Sequoia to the sands in coves.
Nothing would ever go to waste.
Everything had value in its own way.
And the biggest beauty of all Her creations
Was that there were no Start and End buttons.
Even if a Time came when it all seemed to end,
It would lay a path for new beginnings to commence.
So, in the velds, the lion would eat the bison.
And when Death overcame the lion,
He’d become the grass, on which the bison thrived,
Thus would move the circle of Life.
We have much to learn from Her.
To replace “failure” with “lessons learned.”
To keep trying, improving, and, again, trying,
For that’s the only way out in the grand scheme of things.
