“Walk”

Walk

I walked on the Earth /

and through the May morning sky /

blue and green and me.

Earth Day

“What is the universe? Space. Out of space came a coagulation that became a nebula, and out of the nebula, millions of galaxies, and within one constellation of galaxies, a sun, with our little planet circling it. Then out of the earth came us, the eyes and the consciousness and the ears and the breathing of the earth itself.”

– Joseph Campbell

Pluck

To pluck the sun, /

pluck the Iris from the Earth /
