Masterpiece

Hallowed and hushed,
this blue nature's nursery
where every nook and cranny
contains a precious jewel,
a marvelous rendition,
in miniature perfection,
of the ones that created it...

And what pity those masters,
artistic by instinct,
recruited by destiny
and paid by survival
will never bear witness,
stand back and admire
their own
greatest
masterpiece.
