Transformation

And part of the soil is called to wash away

In storms and streams shave close and gnaw the rocks.

Besides, whatever the earth feeds and grows

Is restored to earth. And since she surely is

The womb of all things and their common grave,

Earth must dwindle, you see and take on growth again.

 

~Titus Lucretius "On the nature of things"
