'Beauty does save the world'

'Beauty does save the world' timothy r gates, 7/12/2011

out of the darkness' covering
a word winked, 'Let there be Light!'
Lilith may have been too much,
too soon
Eve's sorrow found another,
moon's son
One from the Earth's intuition,
'the last shall be first'
Plants give birth,
seeds dying, singing a new song,
resurrection's dirge
hidden quietness appears silent, intoning,
"Beauty does save the world"
