Unending

The air that we breathe now
Inhaled by the lungs of Adam
The water of every ocean
If distilled, or refined
Is the water of human cells
Flows through our wine
The hope alive in every heart
Is knowledge of the divine
Even if we do not believe
Truth cannot pass from view
We are mortal, death waits
But something lives on
Beyond far horizons
Beyond oblivion

IN VINO VERITAS
