In gardens, I hide beneath the earth's crust, Orange and crunchy, a veggie you trust. Bunnies adore me with every bite, A root that's both savory and bright.

Child of the glacier, now wed to the river and seas, wear your towering crowns of earth with pride. Remember fondly your landlocked siblings, and gather up your hanging valleys. Now, run, Child, headlong into the loving embrace of the basin, filled to the brim with brackish water.

Silent collectors of rain and river, they mirror the sky's gaze and cradle islands within their gentle embrace.

Guardian shields of the sky, they bloom above in gloomy times, a canopy of colors that dances with the wind, keeping the drips and drops at bay.

I sit on the water but I’m not a duck, Push me with oars and I’ll never get stuck. When you feel tired, I help you stay strong, With each little stroke, you keep moving along.
