“A poem for the 50th anniversary of EARTH DAY.”
A beautiful enchantment Earth, I love you, for my eternal seed roots in you Earth, you revolve, while the sea dissolves into you Earth, you evolve, while everything else dies within you Your belly is a jar that nurture everything that's alive Your belly is a petri-dish where we all dive Your belly is a pathway, where we all drive This little planet, pale blue dot, so fertile and damp This little planet, rich with variances of life and lands This little planet, so colorful, so full with things that ramp And your big arms, hug us, mortal as we are And your big arms, cradle us, bad as we are And your big arms, protect us, fragile as we are How lovely for us to live inside of your dream How lovely to exist, just to exist, swimming in your stream How lovely to open our eyes as to find us in your rim Earth I do love everything that you contain — The sea, the sun, the sky, the lands, this wellspring, You see, you hear, and I know of all the love that remain While you watch in silence, with adoration, your everything Earth, what a beautiful enchantment you are Earth, you are a treasure chest that contains all Earth, your secret, the chamber inside, your half dark Earth, I am silent, and in this silence I watch you grow whole. -Eiravel-
