Mother Earth<\/p>\n
On the darkest night or the brightest day.<\/p>\n
She is always around to play.<\/p>\n
Some act as they hate it with all their heart.<\/p>\n
Others miss her when they are apart.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She sings us songs without words.<\/p>\n
It\u2019s the loveliest thing you ever heard.<\/p>\n
It blends \u00a0with the colors in her dress.<\/p>\n
As she turns & twirls without any rest.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She is valued above any other like her.<\/p>\n
All her children want to be like her.<\/p>\n
She shines like a bright diamond.<\/p>\n
Yet, \u00a0covers herself in mystery blinded.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She was here through every age.<\/p>\n
Each day she turns a new page.<\/p>\n
She may cry and she may smile.<\/p>\n
Sun shining bright all the while.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She gives life to everyone.<\/p>\n
Yet, may turn sick without any sun.<\/p>\n
She will fast & make herself well.<\/p>\n
How long she can last, \u00a0only time will tell.—R. W. Johnson—–(2013)<\/p>\n
