“Earth Dance”
The Earth is soft
Beneath your feet
Feeling
Perceiving
You move
To that ancient song
Of your Mother
Within moments
The forest birds
Pipe in
With their chorus
And the crickets too
Express with delight
Their rhythms
Through the night
And the wind howls
As the pitter-patter
Of falling raindrops
Plays percussion
To the ecstatic dance
You are part of
Move,
Child of the Earth
Feel your steps merge
With the wisdom
Of her spirit
That nurtures
And loves us all
Under the open sky
Is where you will find
The bliss of ecstatic union
Now, Go,
Dance and rejoice!
