Mother Earth is suffering
from post-traumatic stress:
legacy of all the trauma
she has endured -
wars, bombings,
nuclear "tests", fracking,
HAARP,
holes in the ozone,
her human children's addiction to oil,
the corporate world's greed, devastated forests,
habitat and entire ecosystems.
Her warnings ~
fires, flooding,
tornadoes, hurricanes,
ecological unrest ~
have not been heeded.
She weeps.
The whales, the birds,
the hungry bears and wolves,
all creatures dispossessed
by the raping and pillaging
of natural resources,
weep with her.
Wherever you are today,
take a few moments
to look around,
perhaps sprinkle
some healing water,
whisper a little blessing
for her healing.
Wipe her tears.
Then write your congressman,
and speak
for the earth
and its creatures,
who have no voice.
