    Mother Earths Pain

    Mother Earths Pain

    Oh! Mother Earth
    You are a part of me
    You gave this life to me
    I am of the people
    Giving thanks for thee

    Great Spirit you are in me
    I am in the trees, rivers, the seas
    In the sky and earth with thee
    Within the forest I can breath

    I am a child of the Sun and Sky
    Grandmother’s child of the Light
    I feel your pain in the night
    I am of the people in your plight

    Dirty, grimy cities
    Clog the air destroying life
    Hands of destruction
    You have overcome
    Your strength will not be undone

    Oh! Mother Earth
    You are a part of me
    You gave this life to me
    I am of the people
    Giving thanks for thee

    Flow on down to me Mother
    I seek the forest to be free
    Where life can breath
    With the morning sun
    A spirit sails free

    Seas flowing black as night
    Destroying life with spite
    Hands of destruction
    You have overcome
    Your strength will not be undone

    Great Spirit you are in me
    I am in the trees, the rivers, the seas
    In the sky and earth with thee
    Within the forest I can breath

    I am a child of the Sun and Sky
    Grandmother’s child of the Light
    I feel your pain in the night
    I am of the people in your plight

    Great Spirit you are in me
    I am in the trees, the rivers, the seas
    In the sky and earth with thee
    Within the forest I can breath

    Flow on down to me Mother
    I seek the forest to be free
    Where life can breath
    With the morning sun
    A spirit sails free

    Oh! Mother Earth
    You are a part of me
    You gave this life to me
    I am of the people
    Giving thanks for thee

    I have a strong passion of the earth and the beauty it holds, which angers my soul when I see the abuse that is given to her. You should read "mother earth" on my list. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed this piece. Thanks... Please keep on sharing your words.

    Poetry is not the expression of personality but an escape from personality.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
