Here’s a gem from last year’s month of poetry that I wrote for earth day.
Happy Earth Day! May we appreciate her many gifts.
Open Your Eyes
I offer mother earth my thanks
for treasure beyond money in banks
trees bursting with flowers aglow
the springtime magic show
~
birds sing, flit and mate
their partners happy and sate
april showers steady and rife
nourishing the hidden seeds of life
~
once again the miracle of birth
hidden treasures from the earth
tendrils reach to the sky
lift up your third eye
~
let the majesty of spring
make your heart sing
open your mind
beauty and grace combined
~
say goodbye to strife
allow beauty into your life
be still and know
life is all aglow
May the beauty of nature touch your soul and inspire you to love, protect and enjoy this precious planet.
