having had a hand in its creation!

and Blood (here)

1.0  earthlings
glory be to raise angels of offspring
of one's own flesh and blood
extending light to life on earth
and not wanting to end a dynasty

2.0  sunbathers
if it so pleased the longings due
for seeing a lineage to dance in the sun
with that of a second and a third generation
to continue as Providence would have it done

3.0 moonshining
it lays bare of a desire to warm up 
to the moon as it rides on its own momentum
a progeny of human existence
to populate this rare planet
as Mother Earth comes into being

and to subsequently die happy
of having had a hand in its creation

Note: Laura Ma'am, not sure whether 
Hank got it right with the sub-titles

  3. Through the generations we leave behind, we are eternal.

  4. Hank, except for the moon I don't think the other two were of much use.
    What I call "groupie followers", the performer needs these so perhaps they were helping. Dunno.
