Earth Day"Mother Earth" is her name in fables
But now we agree that the mothering
Needs to be done by the children
Whose reckless doings have aged her,
Creasing her brow, stooping her shoulders
As she's waited for them to return
From nights of drinking, from speeding
For thrills on icy roads...
Thoughtful and well-composed poems make this a pleasant book to read. The are deep, yet gently expressed. I loved the flow of the author's lines. Each poem is like opening a lovely package. The messages are varied and read like sound advice from a wise grandfather. Beautiful simplicity make a poetry book worth reading.
