Mother Earth's Pulsing Passion

Our Earth ~ Our Celebration ~ EARTH DAY 

Mother Earth's Pulsing Passion

May our awareness, our discernment, our knowing wise, as a community of people from all parts of this Earth, bring a renewed reverence to Mother Nature and her Divine intelligence.

Let us rise above the corporate greed and impeding control... of those who ravage Mother Earth by pesticides, toxins, poisons, manipulation and GMO domination.

We are more in numbers, more with endowed power, more with right intention, and must appreciate WE ARE THE CHANGE that is to BE!!! WE and Mother Earth deserve no less... all with blessings and love...

Mother Earth ~ Ravage Not 

Inspired Spirit and Blessings shall prevail

There is Love beyond travail

That knowing faith within heart

From which a questing peace has its start

A vision beyond the perceived despair

So be our wondrous destiny in God's care

Light and TRUTH be they the resounding plea

Over our lands from sea to sea

Gather our thoughts and a new vision clear

Beyond all illusions beyond all fear.

Ravage not the land nor sea

Heed the echoed cry and plea

Heard in the crashing wave and thunderous sky

In valleys, plains and mountains high

Hold this Earth in reverent care

Protect our gifts of water and air

Take not in abuse a mineral or gem

Behold the wonder of each bloom, leaf and stem

Trees to flourish, 'tis bounty's call

The knowing grace of Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall

Earth, animals, a you, a me

Nurture wise and abundance be.

Nurture it as it nurtures each of us, be one in Deliverance.
