Prayers to mother earth

Chapter One – Segment Five “PRAYER TO MOTHER EARTH”

More praises to mother earth,

More praises to mother earth,

More praises to mother earth,

For accepting the molding of God

So your beautiful face could be my home And may the tears of joy

That you cry refresh me,

And may the sweat

That runs down from your brow, Provide the salts that flavor my life,

And the air that blows

From your nostril cool me,

And may I shelter under The trees that run

Alongside your cheeks.

May your waters never rise to wash me away,

And your winds never hurl to blow me down,

pores

Nor your pours open up to swallow me Nor your fever burn so high as to consumeme,

And may I be one to help beautify your

image

And keep your surface clean.
