"The Mother"

"Nature Unveiled" by David Chapman   

Spirit of the earth   
nurture and comfort me   
cradle me within your open arms   
succor my hunger with your hope   
slake my thirsty psyche with new visions of our past   
celebrate the sun’s journey   
sing of the moon’s wax and wane   
pull me into your sacred circle   
ease my isolation by weaving me with gossamer     
to your core

  1. Reminds me of my father's vision of heaven and earth. He believes in God and angels, but he also believes heaven is right here on earth. He says when he dies he wants to come back, as an angel, to help people. At 87 yrs old he's still awed by the ocean and the mountains and little animals and volcanoes and outer space. He's quite a guy and I'm a lucky kid of 58 yrs myself.
