Spirit of Earth
O presence of life
I imagine you in all things
Alive in the sparkle of ocean, lake and stream
In misty veils that hang on Dawn like lavender dreams
Spirit of Earth I’ve seen your breath arise
in secretive places where clouds are formed
I’ve heard your silvery laughter as another stream is born
In magical forests that call forth flowers and leaves
In opal skies that cycle clouds to rebirth every Spring
Sweet Spirit of Earth lying in banks of blue flowers
Wonder, dream, and delight –these are your words
Words that bid new mountains rise,
convoluting deep confessions like spells in violet eyes
In the dark realms is your Spirit waiting to arise.
Like a collage of beauty- Spirit of Earth
with all your unknown mysteries
Your wisdom of renewal flowing through all things
Death is your slumber of symphonies unsung
Spirit of Earth in dreaming sleep
Awaken your miracles –remain forever young
