From Earth With Love
Before dying
Wriggling soil
Asked the children
Would you give
The leafy eyes
Only to see me?
Before the fall
Writhing earth
Entreated the children
would you give
The ears of green trees
Only to hear me?
To the world of the matured
Went the little ones
Searching leafy eyes and ears.
Will they return?
If return
Will the soil and earth remain?
