Earth Mother
Ode to the Earth, magnificent curved You
green seas, fresh turn each day, warmed from afar
by a star, blazing her heart out, for You
Her rays penetrate the cosmos, with ease
heating Your sod, encouraging new life
You turn, epic, majestic, our Mother
natural in all You do, gorgeous You
the Moon swells Your oceans, circulating
liquified animation, deep blue sea
feathered flocks fill Your clouds, riding thermals
glorious happenings, land, water, skies
the lucky few: limited time with You
evolution, birth, a wondrous gift
how do we tell our heart we must depart
