Whispers of Ancestry
From the shadows of the ancient dawn, the voices of forefathers
The tapestry of human history is a blend of triumph and tragedy
In the heart of Africa three hundred millennia past
Life came to earth, the evolution of sapiens
They had no capes nor sweaters, and fought to survive or die waiting
Following the wisdom of their elders, surviving another day
Quartz sparking feasting on a giant Irish elk
Seeking out solace and shelter, nestled in the cavern’s depth
Under the Tuscan sun, tales of strength and resilience
Homo sapiens, possessing both perception and native wit
Babylonian chronicles, unfolding the whispers of ancestry
Listening to those mighty slumbers, under the quiet earth
