               Dear Goddess

I remember you dear Goddess. You were my long walk on the  Pacific ocean.

You were the view from the ridge of a great mountain. You showed me your perfect beauty.

I have tried to touch your kind gifts with appreciation and concern. I love the sea, the great valley of flowers and the secret and hidden places of the mountain range.

I loved your song. I loved the whispering of dancing sea, the free land and laughing children. You taught me.

Life is my decision. To love the earth and dance gently upon her. You are our lifeblood and gift to appreciate and protect.

Dear Goddess. Thank you for the new day and opportunity to dance with the sea, to sing with the wind and to celebrate the free gifts of nature.

No not just words. Words we need to live by if we wish to save this planet from our self destruction. Humans tend to be very cruel and heartless. We all need to take the time to do what we can to help each other and the planet in order to ensure that our life and our legacy continues.

'Life is my decision.' That goes to the essence of it all. I admire how you can show such openness to a higher force...I am struggling with that myself. You make it sound like it is a source of life for you, which allows you to create meaning and get the best of every moment. Strong writing.

Thank you Philip. Took me many years to learn. Life is simple. Lead with concern, kindness and love. Don't damage our home or world. What we leave behind is the educations and wisdom for the next generation.

This is really beautiful. Mother earth is quite extraordinary. I really like your choice of words and expressions. Also, I love how you've presented this piece in the form of a letter to the mother of all. The earthy and peaceful vibe really gets to me. I love the fact that the earth nourishes and replenishes herself. I also respect the fact that there will always be parts of the earth that man has never seen. Such is her wonder.

Thank you Kristan. I appreciate the comment.

Beautifully written.....though that which sounds sweet, and even tastes sweet often can and will leave a bitter after-taste or have other sour consequences........

Respect. I'm saying this because it's the truth about your point of view towards her, I know she feels even more appreciated than how you feel.

They may be just words, but they flow with such thought and concern. What an expression to mother nature, I just love it.

beautiful words of praise for mother goddess earth

[Coyote Poetry]

We need to appreciate her. Thank you for reading and the comment dear Poet.

[JayceeC]

To be one and at peace with the world and yourself is a goal worthy of pursuit, but only attained by those willing to give up and give in to her demand. Although she brings peace, she truly asks for a simple life and plays a simple time. Nicely done John.

[Coyote Poetry]

I agree and thank you for reading and the comment.
