Mother Earth by Catyrose

Listen to the sound of the water
Rushing against the jagged rocks
Gaze at the vast cerulean sky above
Taste crimson colored berries from the vine

Pause and enjoy this precious moment in time

Inhale the scent of cherry blossoms
On this lovely spring day
Feel the earth beneath your feet
As you climb high upon the trail
Experience the sensations mother earth provides

Trust her she will be your guide

Observe closely as the birds take flight
Peer at the butterfly as she passes by
Rest quietly against the old oak tree

Breathing in all of mother natures majesty

Climb high into the clay colored hills
Feel the spirit of those who have gone before
Hear their voices rise in the warm dessert breeze

Instructing you in thought and deeds

Offering wisdom that you might share
With those who seek along the way
Honoring mother earths voice

With the dawning of each new day

I would go insane
If I didn't commune with nature almost every day. Love your poetry, Catyrose.

Thank you ladies
Thank you MC and Terri for your kind words. I wrote this recalling a time I spent in Chaco Canyon. I remember sitting by a kiva (i think that's the name) where ceremonies took place. The wind picked up and it was the oddest sensation. It was as if there were spirits present in that wind speaking to me. Quite a unique experience. Again thank you for your comments. And Terri, thanks so much for the poem. It really touched my heart. No one has ever done anything like that for me before. :)

The Spirits were touched by your sincere presence
Caty, you were on Sacred Land, trust me Sweetie " Spirits spoke to you " the sensation was like your body had consumed a mint after takin' in a breath of the sweet air...after the breeze whispered gently to you, i know the feelin' a re-birth...my people come from close by where you reside, i know the place.....no thax needed when words of a heart are written for and from a friend..
