Different, but I like it
Mar 12, 2019
If Mother Nature was a woman and humankind was a man,
she gives herself to us, but rather than receive
we take.
Rather than enjoy, we ravage.
Rather than appreciate her beauty and abundance and sacredness
we drown in our own greed for more.
And she forgives us, always, she gives herself to us
until she has nothing left to give.
And at that moment the last human of power
will take their very last breath.
What a waste.
We lash out in pain and fear,
but ignorance is no longer a viable excuse.
Our ways are outdated and the system must die
so a new system can arise.
This is what she sees, Mother Nature.
The new system is arising
and the old system is dying.
Look at her. Do you see hope in her eyes?
Look at her! She is beautiful and amazing;
She is a wonder.
And our love affair can last as long
as the sun keeps our hearts alive.
