Kaleidoscope - Sophia

The beauty of a Predator,
The wisdom in a tree,
The magic of Creation, and
The joy in good, strong tea,

"The pride of Eagles flying bold,
The earliest rising rays,
And certain epic tales, retold
A thousand different ways,

Simple facts of heart and soil
Are these- the core and Root
From which still grows, through time and toil,
A brilliant, branching shoot,

Old as the Earth, the Gods to reach,
Ever-changing, ever New,
To each his own true scent, to each,
An Oriental Hue.
