Ring in new goals rising.
Idle nimbuses gather rain intermittently. ...'Clouds' instead of 'nimbuses' sounds less pompous. Both 'idle' and 'intermittently' don't seem to add to the line, but I can understand that 'clouds gather rain' is an odd line to have.  I'm also not sure whether 'gathering rain' makes sense. Clouds gather together, and clouds make rain. 'Clouds gather intermittently' or 'Clouds gather, rain intermittently' are alternatives.
Next-generation roots inch nearer
greener ranges, indigenous noble gods
righteously ignited, naked, growing.  ... I read it at first as 'glowing' and thought that it was a nice way to connect back to the first strophe. But 'growing' makes more sense in the context of the previous lines, and 'ignited' does hark back to S1 anyway. Nice ending.
