Raptures

Let animals thrive and vegans flourish;

let hearts be left whole,

safe from razors, poison

and let words, good words, rule

so life can flourish

love bloom

and death be given

no further dominion.

when new rain makes raw land fertile

and flowers get drunk in water,

and large animals swim in lavawarm seas,

and chanticleer cheers wakening suns

the time for love is here
