mother earth day...

photo by me. march 2008. bird refuge trip.

today is a day of awe.

i feel the earth moving in a

mysterious rhythm.

isn't it silence-demanding when

you see birds flying and swooping

while the grasses sway

and the wind dances?

what words can say

how much your heart swells

when you hear a babbling brook

or see the night sky dotted

with grand little lights?

thank you, mother earth

for your heartbeat.

i hope to be worthy of your grace.
