Gliding over muddy plains
Sliding with the crocs
Ripping snakes from rocks
Slipping down ice
Of ugly beasts you taught so much
Of joy and light and madness
The nature and the oneness all
Your passing is with sadness
The peace of floating on the waves
Looking down at rays divine
That peace holds you closely now
Nature got you - that's fine
