Adorned by cycles in rich décor, she refills her bounty, her lush gifts as Mother Earth nourishes a womb ; caressing seeds of life to unfold into fertile roots which tend my hearth, and layers of her skin gather the fields, where herds of cattle, rows of boughs roam regaling toil’s leisure , gold the corn… Pleased with the laughter of womenfolk carrying fruits riper than sunlight her earthy breath at ease like a dance alive in continual motion: yet this maiden’s glory longs for time boney spine aging from burnt decay while she recalls the fresh of pure mist; awaiting man to cradle her again. Contest Elements Part 1: Earth, Brian Davey 3/12/2016
