My ode to Mother Nature

lyrics

My momma all mossy green
Got little white shells scattered all o'er the place

In a baby's voice she babbles along
While water passes through her veins and moves her spirit on

She speaks to me in creaks and moans
When the wind blows and stretches all her bones

She sings to me, I sing to her
We marry in the canopy of her woodland folklore

She sheds her tears in a slow waltz
When rain drops on dried up leaves and whispers winter words

She's homeless because of greed
She loses time and slurs her words in a soul piercing rhyme

Her quietude is a restless move
When the wind stops and the snow falls and she makes no sound at all

Thank you for listening. ... more
