Poem: |
EARTH AND MAN
|
| |
I am the sweet scent of orange blossoms
Released in every breeze
I am the running spring sparkling and clear
Life-giving to all creatures
I am the soil to hold root of vine
Rich and moist to offer subsistence
I am the verdant hills
Mossy green and lush
I am clouds of pure while billows
And dark veils in the sky
I am the cricket's chirp
The nightingales's song
The roar of the lion
The goose's soft down
I am the voice of man
Shouting to be heard
Waiting for the sign of peace
On wings of a dove to be unfurled
I am life itself
The human race
With spirits filled in hope
That the goal of peace
In this great earth
We all may learn to cope
Nancy Ellen Crossland
