Harvest and Springtime
Language: English
In the human experience, the humans are all mingled together; In the same moment the sickle is reaping And the seed is sprinkled:... Harvest and springtime, In each of our lives, Harvest and springtime Are continually one. Harvest and springtime... Gathers and sows us anew... Springtime and harvest and springtime.
