My Mother Is Nature

The fountain of God's love Her thighs are the roots of cotton tree And the ground on which my feet first tasted Her hands are the gravity that held me when I thought I could fly without wings Her fingers still taste like raindrops on my heated body The circulated winds from her nostrils beathe life in her smiles-- I see twinkling stars beautiful flowers from the top of Everest in her veins-- I see oceans upon oceans oceans that tide with the peaceful hands of wave Her face holds the brightness of the sun as it escorts itself every morning In her eyes-- I see winging butterflies being chased by Blue Jay and tiger happily racing with antelope As the branches of her eyelashes stand tall above Her chest holds waterfall canals That flow down from mountains built in heaven In the heart of nature--I see jewelries Gold, diamonds that smile with love She is as green as Amazon forest The sky shows her eyes And her body is Sahara Nature lives in her
