Embracing Earth

Every single plant and flower is my friend. Many the forest path do I journey, Breathing in the rich earth and clean air, Reposing in a meadow green just listening, Amongst the dancing daisies just resting. Could anything else be more peaceful and healing? I think within the soil there must be magic. Nothing is more precious than this place called Earth. Gathering my recycling each week I do my measure! Every tree lost is agonizing and hurtful to watch. At my building a company is cutting down the maple trees, Roaring they fall and I am left weeping. The ravage of nature is so devastating to endure. How can we, the visitors, stop the ruination of Earth? _____________________ July 30, 2021 (Repost) Poetry/Acrostic/EMBRACING EARTH Copyright Protected, ID 07-1376-624-30 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Submitted into the Standard contest, A Brian Strand August sponsor, Brian Strand, Judged 0802/2021 First Place
