Wow Sam, this is truly powerful, you have arrived! I feel so much this journey and adventure that Mother Earth has been on. Your words deliver a message of sorrow, but much more than that a message of hope. That there are more people here to create than to destroy and that collectively we are returning to a way of being that will bring peace and plenty and care. Thank you for your beautiful poem to bring us all to the place of knowing and softness. xxx
Thank you Louise for your kind words. I am so glad that it resonated deeply with you. We are both on a path to help heal Mother Earth - by looking into ourselves, by offering our unique skills to others and by standing tall and shining our light. To another kindred soul. Bless you.
A bit of history about this post…I wrote this piece pre Covid, when there were massive bushfires here in Australia. I felt that there was no end to the fires, the smoke and the pain of all the sentient beings affected by such. And thus this post flowed out - to be shared, to be offered. A prayer/poem/story/saga of hope and healing, of connection and peace, of a new way of being in the world and thus ourselves.
It must have been very difficult to witness that Sam, but here it is giving so much to others, who are experiencing those difficult times. How wonderful xx
Powerful journey, this poetry of yours. It truly is a heartbreaking love story. Yet it reflects how deep our love is for the ground, mother earth, her cycles, rhythms and ways. When desecrated, I feel desecrated. This is what connection is! So that means when she is respected and venerated. I feel the same way too. Again a powerful journey.
I am currently reading Braiding Sweetgrass. Wow, what a beautiful book. I appreciate the significance of reciprocity more now than ever. This exquisite give and take that benefits all. Not as a transaction but coming back to honoring the earth. An inherent connection that flows.
Thank you my dear friend for finding this piece powerful.
What you wrote, I feel exactly the same... any action we do upon the earth we do to ourselves and vise versa. I feel that only when we are TRULY READY to understand that can deep healing take place. Imagine if all the politicians understood this, peace would be the norm... {big sigh!}
I have yet to read Braiding Sweetgrass, thank you for suggesting it.
What a wonderful weaving of words, story and wisdom. I’m in awe with the journey and simplicity of this weaving.
Thank you so much for these beautiful words. Bless you. They have made my heart soar.
