Earth in me
17 March 2015
The grasshopper sang
To the revival of Earth
Its voice clean and fresh
Fresh beginnings stirred in mind
As the path lay ahead raw
.
A snake crawled silent
Slithering frame shedding all
As it renewed skin
Skin deep regeneration
Would lull not wandering soul
.
The river flowed still
Glistening streaks of light gems
That shone unrivalled
No parallel for the sane
Earth’s core shone in pure white light
.
The wind danced in sails
That filled to the tune of woods
Like elves on a plain
Out in plain sight I bore mind
Which shook with tremor of now
.
Neutron bombarded
Clouds gave forth rain and tempest
Drenching parched dry soil
Relief overcame dry eye
As tears joined with raindrops
.
Shrubs grow sparkling green
Voiceless witnesses of Earth
They renew in me
A new dawn thus finds me now
Watching tide of change ebb flow
.
Springtime blooms steadfast
Carving red roses in rocks
As white lilies played
Teasing starry-eyed watchers
Strewed the sky with crimson signs
.
Beating lively drums
Set pace to throb of living
While waterfalls gushed
Stirring emotions rushed forth
As Earth in me clad green robes
.
