OUR MOTHER EARTH
She is at one with all creatures large and
Mother Earth weeps with sadness and pain for
She is a sentient being with a Soul, a Body,

When you walk on Mother Earth, tread softly.
She has a dented spirit which needs healing.
She is as lonely as a lone pine tree in a desert,
for lack of those who turn to her for her love.
Who in turn go to her realm to give her love.
She is a nurturer and creator, but no longer
do the people hear the lullaby at night as she
sings all creatures to sleep. Nor do they feel
the warmth of her caresses at dawn and sunset
or hear her words of wisdom
on clear moonlit nights.

with surviving in this world that they build
concrete and steel, dam rivers, fill the air with
toxic fumes and metals, and block out the
Creators energy with rays that slowly kills all
that lives on the surface of the planet.

she must do what is needed for this planet to
keep it in harmony with the Universe. This might
mean using the so called "natural disasters" to
call heed to her needs. Yet still few hear her

a Heart Beat, and Love, Joy, Beauty, but now
also Sadness and Pain. She is able to communicate
and will do so if you truly believe in her and
love her. She has her own form of communication
which has no need of language, yet you will know
what she is asking and giving you,
not in words, but in feelings.
It is not just the gifted but all who should be
embracing with open arms,
the Love of Mother Earth.
For then there will be more happiness on Earth.
