A love song to the earth

In the story of creation
if we truly listen
if we see the world
all that is in it
with our ears as well as our eyes

We are missing,
a love song to the earth
the creator created balance
of work, and toil, and rest

Take the time to listen
to pick up the melody for your life
join the chorus, the ones
singing with the creator
a love song to the earth
