Mother of Earth

You're a flower A rose in in your mother's hand So much trouble you've caused; But you are now the founder of this sphere You were 5 the apple of your Father's eye; growing pains, let it rain, let it rain; You're part of the terrain, the grounds we walk on; Cousin to the mountains; Sister to the clouds; And you embrace it all out loud; What's it worth, You are you're MOTHER EARTH Mother of Earth You were 45 yet so alive you are caring so endearing a nurturer; so much trouble you've caused; You're like a thunderstorm gone wrong; Tornado, hurricanes You are the mother with so many names; But you are now the founder of this sphere; You were, and are still the apple of your Father's eye; And everything living; So forgiving; Flowers in your hair; the dirt, we hurt the trees you leave; the rivers and mountains to believe; you rain, let it rain; shower blessings on me; you are caring, so endearing; a nurturer; your are part of the terrain You are the hills, the valleys, mountains; Sister to the clouds; cousin to the mountains; did I say that out loud; we embrace it and for what it's worth you are you're MOTHER EARTH Mother of Earth Written by James E Lee Sr. Dec 2 2014 (c) from " Celebrate: A collection of Writings about Women"
