From the ravine to a straight road
Ravine: Oh road , you're on the straight and narrow
Your path is so very shallow
And the beings that pass by oh so mellow
Everyone's a jolly good fellow
Road: Dear ravine with your twists murky and deep
The deer indeed afraid to sleep
As the stealthy lion with his roving eye
From afar spies fair Game
With alaricity jumps on his prey to tame
The taste of different meat is never the same
Enough about the hunter, let's go to the topography
Majestic hills exuding poise over landscapes
Their peaks shimmering with the light of the sun
Slicing through the ice like a knife
And rivers which gurgle and sing
As their forge their merry part through the spring
Valleys so deep trenches so dark
No man fallen there can even holler hark
Different are we in our paths
Ravine:- Indeed you are a straight man
Whereas I a sinner,twisted and hardened
Yet the folks from my land more weathered and hardy
Whereas yours soft as a changeling and tardy
Road:-Hail Ravine, however different are we
We reach the same spot by every decree
I refined ,Whereas you rough
We are essentially one in soul and being
A team indeed as you are seeing
Ravine:- Sister Road, you've indeed left me spellbound
By this marvelous revelation profound
