To our Mother dear

in Your loving hands, we are

at Your table of bounty

caretakers of Earth

we stewards of the life bourne

You are the essence of love

A love sedoka in honor of Earth Day which must be every day! As prompted by Gillena Cox on:

I have been writing all my life but for the most part, it has been a secret. My parents did not believe writing was a good way to earn money so I hid my poems. Then one day, I wanted to comment on an essay that a friend had written and found myself with a blog. That quiet whisper inside said, "You can write your poetry and no one will ever know.". I knew nothing of followers and the like at that time. So, here I am trying to learn my craft and enjoying every moment of it. My personal details are, I'm 57, married for 39 years, have one grown son who is God's gift to us and last but not least at all, I'm a Baha'i which basically means that I love all humanity.

  4. So beautiful Carol, the image too! As caretakers, we need to take the job more seriously before it’s too late. There’s always hope and mother can be very patient. Hugs!

      1. You are welcome, Carol!! I too believe in the re-emergence of Mother. That is why I am so determine to grow such beautiful flowers in my gardens. I swear the colors glow and I have seen people slowing down while driving just to stare in wonder. It’s quite a sight when all is in bloom!!! 🙂

  8. beautiful the way a tiny tree grown in a Japanese garden is so quaint and delicate, as well as the broken glass sphere surrounding the little tree, almost like a transparent planter. Very nice sedoka.

  9. Beautiful poetry and as I was reading a little “about the author” I’m so glad you decided to share your beautiful words with us – the world. I’m happier because of it. 🙂
