the earth and me

oh baby I love the earth.

I love the way she smells (most of the time)
I love her kiss on my skin when she's sunny
I love the drama of her rain when she's stormy
I love the power in the churning of her oceans
and I love the fatness of her hills

I love the vegetables and fruits that are born out of her
they delight my body
I love the animals that live in and on her
they delight my soul

Today I decided I loved the earth enough to beat the bus home with my own two feet
then the earth loved me right back up and gave my new garden a sprinkle

I think we have a good thing going.

happy earth day.

I enjoyed this woman's blog post about the occasion, so I pass it on to you. enjoy.
