The Salts of the Earth
The oceans, they are one, we know,
Though known by various names.
And when their currents meet, they mix
And mingle over time.
But one may sink, the other rise,
Or travel side by side
For quite a while. Their colors, shades
May vary widely, while
Reflecting, each, its history
And so its current state—
Its temperature, its density,
And all it carries. So,
Our races and our cultures—these
Are varied, yet are one—
And so is all of sentience,
In all its forms diverse.
This summarizes all I know—
So here I'll end this verse.
