Earth, teach me quiet
- as the grasses are still with new light.
Earth, teach me suffering
- as old stones suffer with memory.
Earth, teach me humility
- as blossoms are humble with beginning.
Earth, teach me love and care
- as mothers nurture their young.
Earth, teach me courage
- as the tree that stands alone.
Earth, teach me limitation
- as the ant that crawls on the ground.
Earth, teach me freedom
- as the eagle that soars in the sky.
Earth, teach me acceptance
- as the leaves that die each fall.
Earth, teach me renewal
- as the seed that rises in the spring.
Earth, teach me to forget myself
- as melted snow forgets its life.
Earth, teach me to remember kindness
- as dry fields weep with rain.
Earth, nothing and no one can teach me more than you do.
I will always look up to you.
Inspire your dear ones by sharing these words.
