I Am Mother Earth

Red earth, green land, blue skies Deep seas, valleys low, mountains high Waterfalls, cascade, streams merge Sagas unfold, Tales told, myths heard Nations rise, nations fall, nations torn Heroes live, idols die, Legends born Sunrise, sunsets, I stand I reap, I sow, replenish lands Winds blow, rain pours, and flowers bloom Dark nights, full moons, filled with gloom I am kings, I am queens, I am you I am bold, I am fierce, I am true Winter’s snow, summer’s heat, autumn’s breeze Grassy knolls, flat terrains, barren trees Seasons change, all rejoice, all weep I’m enslaved, I am caged, I am beat I am war, I am peace, I am free I am all, nothing more, nothing less, I am soul, I am blood, I am breath Desert soil, great unknown, foreign lands Multiplying, I am child, I’m woman I am love, I am hate, I’m despair I am fire, I am water, I am air Oceans clear, pink sands, gray clouds I am wise, I am strong, I am proud. I am spirit, I am flesh, turned to dust, I give life, I am death, and I am birth I AM MOTHER EARTH. Chiquita (Chiamaka) Baity
