Earth-By Alex Owens


I crave the power and the wealth
Of Nature’s warmth.

To hold it in my cupped hands,
Watching it--slip--
Between my Fingers.

Like cool silk--
On a summer’s day.

To want creating and knowledge,
And know that--within these--

I am Safe.

I want to sing my songs underneath the stars--
And listen with un-clouded eyes..

To the earth.
