Mother Earth

Your skirts are the clouds you shake to make it rain
Your red lips are the blossoms from many cultured gardens
Your hair is braided with vines encircling the sphere
Your tears spill forth from the melting ice caps
Your heart is full like the ocean churning and bubbling in waves of
anxiety and worries  like Mothers do.
With your patience and prayers you give us more time to learn new ways,
like Mothers do.
