Forest Primeval, Acrylic painting by AVR 2000In the deep bowels of the Earth
The ancient sun lies buried deep,
Then modern man came with tools to tap
The fossil long in its keep.
It came from forests ages ago,
By chemistry of nature and time -
Eons to the end of the Sixth Day
When God gave man wisdom in his prime.
But woe, wisdom took away his mild
To mine the forest primeval
To run the wheel, to warm his home,
To guard his own survival.
