The Earth Is Mother To Us All

The Earth
               is Mother
                         to us all

Let us respect it
               and treat
                         it with dignity

We must cherish
               and worship
                         the Earth

For it is all
               that we have
                         there is no

Substitute- - - - - It
               is unique
                         one of a kind

If it perishes
               so will all
                         of humanity

So rekindle the flame
               for Mother Earth
                         help it survive

Yes, we should show reverence and responsibility, rekindle our respect and care for the planet that sustains us. I love the spiritual depth and a sense of communal duty, reflecting your passion for spiritual poetry and friendship. O' Mother Earth, your survival is inseparable from our own. Excellent! Spring Blessings, Daniel
