"Dear Earth"

Dear Earth
I want to thank you
for this beautiful forest
and the oceans
and the deserts too.
Do you hear these little birds singing in the trees?
They thank you too!
Thank you for the skies that are painted so magically!
Thank you for the moon that watches us sleep- no matter where we are!

You have given us so much love with your gifts.
How do we thank you?

Elephants, Rhinos. monkeys and sea creatures
all these animals make up our precious world.
We must help to save them in our world.

I look at the world you have given us and you have made me so happy.
Flowers and butterflys, and this world to run in and play!
How gracious you are!

I hear the rivers that whisper sweet songs
as they travel out to sea.
And I see the mountains
that reach clear to the sky.
I see the painted skies that swirl
around me like a hug,
and the rain drops
that fall to feed our thirsty earth.
Stars that reach as high as they can into the sky,
and twinkle down in all of our worlds.
The wide wide oceans that stretch their arms across the seas.
And the moon that watches us sleep at night.

So many gifts you have given us.
Thank you Earth Mother.
