Our Immortal Earth Mother

We learn from her for as long as we live And so much enjoyment to us she does give Our wonder of her only does seem to grow And the more we learn of her the less of her we know we know. I have loved her since I was a very young boy And her beauty is free for us all to enjoy The colours of her Seasons is an amazing thing And in her groves and woodlands her birds whistle and sing. Unlike all of her life forms and unlike you and I Our immortal Earth Mother is not destined to die The climate may be changing from northern to southern shore But she has outlived climate changes before. The biological clock on my life it is ticking away And the years have left me looking older and gray But for as long to the gift of life as I can cling Our Earth Mother's praises I gladly will sing.
