The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Earth In Us

My fingers wander across the world's map,
as I try to imagine how it withstood
massive eruptions, ice age, and two world-wars,
yet preserving it's natural beauty,
and all forms of life.

I go right in front of the mirror,
and see the person I am,
looking at the craters, valleys, 
and mountains molded in me by fate,
later creating a world in me which is beautiful,
irreplaceable, and complete.

I see myself learning from Mother Earth.....

A lovely write indeed, it brings to mind flashes of some beloved poetry, classics, a timelessness.
