Dust
A divine mountain,
Stood dividing the river,
Weathering the chill,
It stood without a shiver,
For the green shade,
Held it aloft,
For the roots rooted deep,
Hardened the soil that was soft,
As the day turned into night,
And the night to day,
The mountain stood upright,
And looked at the world so gay,
Yet the green of yesteryears,
Had fallen off a little,
Read the rest of the poem Show less
As the side that faced the river tears,
Grew brittle,
And slowly,
Fell off the yellow leaves,
That had once been green,
As if even the divine mountain grieves,
The river surged,
Water moved faster,
And time purged,
The strength the roots couldn't muster,
Loosened the soil,
Swept away was the dirt,
And the water lost its toil,
As the divine mountain was dust.

Silence is the first virtue.
Humans amidst heaven and earth may conceal their names without shame. The wise judge a person's verses before they judge the name beneath them.
