Earth

Oh earth! Your belly is sweet Upon our soul's You are full of kindness Fiend to none Friend to all Friend and foe You cuddle Water you guzzle When it drizzles you puddle When you clap it quakes, rumbles Your dentures are sharper than lion's fangs Your stomach is larger than life Your sword of justice is in your hands Racism, segregation and corruption are alien to you You have silk-stocking folks for dinner Impercunious soul's for lunch Sposh for breakfast Coal as appetizer Oh mother earth! The earth is yours And it's fullness thereof.
