Mother Earth Healing

Mother Earth. I turned my back to you when you asked me to pick up the seeds that could not be planted. The seeds that you meant to nourish with love and grow for all the species of the planet. They were left in front of us, in the dark and forgotten. Mother Earth. You send me many signs to tell me all times we disrupted the flow of life. Mother Earth. You provided us with all that you had and yet in greed we took more than that. Leaving you stale and that's when you started to change. Mother Earth. It's when I let my guard down I woke up to your voice. I felt your presence in most turbulent times when you gently played with my hair allowing me to feel OK. You knocked on my door with sunshine blasting my soul's energy in moments I felt empty. When I had nowhere to go I turned to the soil of the earth, the water of the riverbeds and found peace under the blanket of deep blue sea. Mother Earth. Speak to me for I remember you have been my home. We are the seeds that you have planted, nourished with love and allowed to grow with protection giving us all that you had. It's YOU. It's US. Left in the dark and forgotten. Mother Earth. Speak to us with love.
