When God was made just one

 

When God was made just one

the divine was transplanted

from the forest and sea

no longer trees and animals

the land turned desert to survive

 

 

 

the life of the gingko

 

the life of the great gingko

is your life and mine

it's only from its growing

that we acquaint

sensibility so fine
