Earth
is my child.
I hold her round fragility
close to my heart.
As she turns and rotates around the sun,
I bless her every city,
every stream,
every hilltop.
There is nowhere where I am not.
I am the essence of all
that is good, beautiful,
and holy.
But you take hammers
to the vulnerable planet
and bombard her
with weapons,
pollutants, and revenge.
Still, I hold Earth's round fragility
close to my heart.
As she turns and rotates
around the sun,
I bless her every city,
every stream,
every hilltop.
There is nowhere where I am not.
You yank Earth as you please.
You pry at her.
You falsely believe that you are in charge.
You falsely think you can do whatever
you want with her.
Nonetheless, I hold her round fragility
close to my heart.
As she turns and rotates
around the sun,
I bless her every city,
every stream,
every hilltop.
There is nowhere
where I am not.
Earthling, you are my child.
I hold your round fragility
close to my heart.
As you turn and rotate
around the sun,
I bless your every home,
every tear,
every prayer.
There is nowhere
where I am not.
I am the essence of all
that is good, beautiful,
and holy.
But you take hammers
to your vulnerable Self
and bombard her
with weapons,
pollutants, and revenge.
Still, I hold your round fragility
close to my heart.
As you turn and rotate
around the sun,
I bless your every home,
every tear,
every prayer.
There is nowhere where I am not.
You yank your Self as you please.
You pry at your Self.
You falsely believe that you are in charge.
You falsely think you can do whatever
you want with your Self.
Nonetheless, I hold your round fragility
close to my heart.
As you turn and rotate
around the sun,
I bless your every home,
every tear,
every prayer.
There is nowhere
where I am not.
I am the essence of all
that is good, beautiful,
and holy.
Be still and know
that Earth and Earthling
are my children.
This is your only
hope for peace.
Know there is nowhere
where I am not.
