Mother Earth's Day

Mother Earth's Day

by Ahmad Cox

Ebony eyes as wise as the ages. 

Peircing through history and time 

Hair as green as the deepest grove 

Your roots are deep in the earth 

Your womb is filled with the seeds of life 

Giving the spark to all of us 

You give us the air that we may breath 

You give us water that overflows. 

Your riches could fill the largest coffers and yet there is still so much more 

How beautiful you are and yet we seldom stop to thank, and to look, and to admire,and to listen, and be amazed. 

Be astonished 

Be astounded by the simple fact that life exists, and that without our beautiful mother none of it would be possible 

So the next time you feel lost and weary, and feel like you have a lot on your shoulders, just think about the weight of the world our mother has to carry 

Know that if you are willing to allow her, she will provide. 

Our mother loves all of her creations 

She is just waiting for your acknowledgement. 

No matter who you might be, know that you are wrapped in her grace and in her love and that you are never alone 

You are a child of earth 

And this is your home

Beautiful! This flows with wonder and grace. So many take her for granted.,Where would we be without her? We wouldn't.
