Earth Day

Today is Earth day and I thought of sharing this poem with all. We all have to take care of Mother Earth. She is the real provider.

EARTH DAY POEM by Jane Yolen
I am the Earth
And the Earth is me.
Each blade of grass,
Each honey tree,
Each bit of mud,
And stick and stone
Is blood and muscle,
Skin and bone.
And just as I
Need every bit
Of me to make
My body fit,
So Earth needs
Grass and stone and tree
And things that grow here
Naturally.T
hat's why we
Celebrate this day.
That's why acrossThe world we say
:As long as life,
As dear, as free,
I am the Earth
And the Earth is me.
