Earth Mother's Lament

When you walk on Mother Earth, tread softly. She has a dented spirit which needs healing. She is as lonely as a lone pine tree in a desert, for lack of those who turn to her for her love. Who in turn go to her realm to give her love. She is a Nurturer and Creator, but no longer do the people hear the lullaby at night as she sings all creatures to sleep. Nor do they feel the warmth of her caresses at dawn and sunset or hear her words of wisdom on clear moonlit nights. She is at one with all creatures large and small, and they attune themselves to her heart beat, all except mankind. They are so concerned with surviving in this world that they build concrete and steel, dam rivers, fill the air with toxic fumes and metals, and block out the Creators energy with rays that slowly kills all that lives on the surface of the planet. The seas and all the waters are contaminated and her animals are hunted, and her plants are destroyed, not just for food but for self gratification and so called sport, or to build a temple to the god of sex in their lives. Mother Earth weeps with sadness and pain for she must do what is needed for this planet to keep it in harmony with the Universe. This might mean using the so called "natural disasters" to call heed to her needs. Yet, still few hear her cry, for all to listen to her. Many love her and all that she is, yet even though they rise up and speak to others to care for her, they do not ask her to reveal herself to them. She is a sentient being with a Soul, a Body, a Heart Beat, and Love, Joy, Beauty, but now also Sadness and Pain. She is able to communicate and will do so if you truly believe in her and love her. She has her own form of communication which has no need of language, yet you will know what she is asking and giving you, not in words, but in feelings. It is not just the gifted but all who should be embracing with open arms, the Love of Mother Earth. For then, there will be more happiness on Earth.
