Our True Mother |

Our True Mother The ball bounces on illusion And wobbles in pure confusion In silence it circles the sun From where I believe it was spun. A piece of heaven we call earth Gave us life and gave us birth. But we are one of many forms There seems no edict that is norm. Each form was given place and space. A case within a certain base And left to fill a certain roll No matter where and how the dole But we have overrun our need With greed and over spread of seed There is no other place to go At least non other that I know So let us say for prudence sake It’s time to set a firebreak. |

There is much quiet wisdom in this piece of peace, Sy. You took Sunday out for a spin, and set her mood back to think, again. |

Oh Sy, this is a wonderful read this morning. The sun is so warm and bright here and the leaves have all turned the most glorious colors. Why, oh why, do we humans feel we have the right to totally destroy such beauty? thank you for another wake up call. Hugs, Marti Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away. |

The ball bounces on illusion And wobbles in pure confusion In silence it circles the sun From where I believe it was spun. ===================================== Your Earth poetry is a wake up call truth of Mankind's graceless fall. A toll of bell ... a wisdom's chime humanities crimes defined in rhyme. Mother Nature asks that we send you a thank you note ... for the truths you wrote, we're all in the same boat. |

A piece of heaven we call earth If so...then why are we constantly trying to destroy it? Very thoughtful piece Seymour - enjoyed. Chris Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away. |

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Seymour, this is so very sad but true, sweet friend, there are so many blind fools that constantly destroy this world which is our only abode and even more who stay silent and do nothing but stare and watch them destroy and being hypocritical of making an effort to save this heaven! (sad sigh) This is excellent, sweet friend, you speak with true wisdom, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Seymour, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton "Underneath your clothes there's an endless story..." |

Sy Seems mothers have the capacity to hold much more abuse then would seem possible...perhaps it is some wonderful part of love. |
