EARTH DAY
PAGE 14
HOME
The Earth....Our Mother....
always giving, caring, nurturing.
She needs us more than ever now.
Make every day Earth Day!
PLANTING
Two
Old people work
Side by side
She wears a hat
The old man boasts
No hair at all
She moves
And he kneels
He digs
And she nods while
He speaks
To the seed
She ardently covers
Row by row
They rise and bend
Over their garden
On earth
Sunflowers will bloom
Toward
Late summer
