The Silence Beyond Eden
How many mysteries
have become known,
and how many known things
still remain mysteries
beneath the turning
of Time?
What is now a desert
may once have rested
in the womb of an ocean,
cradled by waves
beneath an ancient sky.
Where waves once wandered,
winds now wander;
where strange creatures lived,
silent sands now sleep.
Their vanished forms
have yielded to Time,
becoming fossils—
enigmatic pages
in the book of Earth.
Through upheaval, erosion,
and the changing breath
of climate and centuries,
the face of the planet
has been rewritten
again and again.
Yet beneath the desert sands,
the past remains awake,
guarding the secrets
of forgotten lives.
The wheel of Time turns—
burying and revealing,
destroying and creating,
transforming oceans into deserts,
life into fossils,
and mystery
into mystery yet to come.
The Earth remembers
what human memory forgets.
