WE ALL WILL RETURN TO NATURE

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"All shall be attuned to the thrumming of Nature's beating heart:
from Nature were we born, and to Nature shall we die."
~ The Viridian Charter ~

No matter how hard you try to harm Nature,
your body will return to earth to nurture.

No matter how far you distance yourself from all things natural,
your body will return to earth to become its next meal .

Mhaldorians, to the west, shed blood with their raid as a bust,
Nature will deem their deaths as just.

Ashtani, to the northwest, will find pause
lest their deaths are Nature's cause.

Hashani, to the north, will lose all that's swell,
their lives forfeited to Nature's well.

Targossians, to the southeast, will not gather there,
but where Nature will count their bodies fair.

Cyrenians, to the southwest, will no longer hide in the mountain,
their bodies returned to Nature's fountain.

No matter how hard you deny Mother Nature,
your body will return to Her to nurture.

Death will return your body to the earth, ready and able
since returning to Nature is inevitable.
