Earth, Teach Me
Earth, teach me quiet ~ as the grasses are still with new light.
Earth, teach me suffering ~ as old stones suffer with memory.
Earth, teach me humility ~ as blossoms are humble with beginning.
Earth, teach me caring ~ as mothers nurture their young.
Earth, teach me courage ~ as the tree that stands alone.
Earth, teach me limitation ~ as the ant that crawls on the ground.
Earth, teach me freedom ~ as the eagle that soars in the sky.
Earth, teach me acceptance ~ as the leaves that die each fall.
Earth, teach me renewal ~ as the seed that rises in the spring.
Earth, teach me to forget myself ~ as melted snow forgets its life.
Earth, teach me to remember kindness ~ as dry fields weep with rain.
