Earth Day Poem 2009


To the Mother that bore us, nurtured us, fed us
From the bountiful orchards that sustained our growth,
She gave us life, nourishment, safety, and thus
I write for Her today, hereby taking an oath
To pay homage to the Mother from whom we came.

As toddlers, we began to crawl over the earth
And new to it's harmony we did not understand,
We claimed lands greedily, increasing our girth.
She watched with annoyance, and tried to demand That we be generous, to share what we claimed.

Still we grew, and learned more, and followed the seasons
Impressionable as Mother tried to show us the way.
Then we chose to rebel, soon beginning the treason
Of growing our own foods, and not wandering, but staying
To Manipulate soils. We were never the same.

Leaning on Mother and not truly living
Taking all that She had, claiming it as our own.
We took species and waters; we'd take without giving
Finding lands of enchantment we'd strip down to the bone.
Demolishing everything without any aim.
And now, through the weeping of willows, She cries
She recalls the childhood of Her prodigal child.
And prays for a time we can have a reprise
Of when we wandered the world, its beauty beguiled.
Her pains to reprove. Our efforts to tame.

We have not looked back, though. And Mother gets older,
And soon we may lose Her, and we have discovered
That Mother now may need to rest on our shoulder
She's weary and beaten, and may not recover.
And now She is weakened. And we are to blame.

Now...

We hope and we pray that our Mother will be here
To watch over our children, watch them grow and play
To take up Her guidance and never to fear
That Mother might not have more to give away.
That our children will not take up their parent's shame.

So to She who has given us life and protection.
We know our mistakes, we'll make up for it now.
This day, Mother Earth Day, we sit in reflection.
To Her, we're indebted, and this we avow:
We'll take care of our Mother from whom we came.

A promise in love

We make promises out of either fear or true love. The promises we make out of fear we will break. The promises we make out of true love we keep.

It is impossible, if I truly love myself, that I hate any living being, because all hatred is ultimately a reflection of self-hatred, or of rejecting some part of myself .

Another word for the capacity to make an effort is stamina. In order to recall magnificent energies to spread love in the world, we need to do the right things that would increase our stamina.

Falling in love with life is falling in love with all the manifestations of life.

We are the universe in perpetual motion. We should try to be aware of each other ,
and to love one another, at each moment.

We are composed of two universes, the universe within us and the universe around us. Loving both universes is the be all and the end all of life. If we cannot love both universes we are not enjoying life. If we can love both universes we are enjoying life.

Without love human life cannot succeed - will not succeed.

If some women are more interested in astrology than astronomy, it is because women seek to make their love of the universe more personal.

Little was ever accomplished by a man or woman who loved and did not exert an effort to express his or her love in some form or another. To express love is as vital as to feel it within. The mere feeling is but the first step taken on a long and wonderful journey.

VOTE EARTH
YOUR LIGHT SWITCH IS YOUR VOTE
This year, Earth Hour has been transformed into the world’s first global election, between Earth and global warming. For the first time in history, people of all ages, nationalities, race and background have the opportunity to use their light switch as their vote – Switching off your lights is a vote for Earth, or leaving them on is a vote for global warming. WWF are urging the world to VOTE EARTH and reach the target of 1 billion votes, which will be presented to world leaders at the Global Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen 2009. This meeting will determine official government policies to take action against global warming, which will replace the Kyoto Protocol. It is the chance for the people of the world to make their voice heard.

Earth Hour began in Sydney in 2007, when 2.2 million homes and businesses switched off their lights for one hour. In 2008 the message had grown into a global sustainability movement, with 50 million people switching off their lights. Global landmarks such as the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, Rome’s Colosseum, the Sydney Opera House and the Coca Cola billboard in Times Square all stood in darkness.

In 2009, Earth Hour is being taken to the next level, with the goal of 1 billion people switching off their lights as part of a global vote. Unlike any election in history, it is not about what country you’re from, but instead, what planet you’re from. VOTE EARTH is a global call to action for every individual, every business, and every community. A call to stand up and take control over the future of our planet. Over 74 countries and territories have pledged their support to VOTE EARTH during Earth Hour 2009, and this number is growing everyday.

We all have a vote, and every single vote counts. Together we can take control of the future of our planet, for future generations.

VOTE EARTH by simply switching off your lights for one hour, and join the world for Earth Hour.

Friendship and Gold
Can Never be Equal

Friendship is a priceless gift,
That cannot be bought or sold.
But its value is far great than,
A mountain made of gold.

For gold is cold and lifeless,
It cannot see nor hear.
And in times of trouble,
It's powerless to cheer.

It has no ears to listen,
Nor a heart to understand.
It cannot give you comfort,
Or lend a helping hand.

So when you ask God for a gift
Be happy if he sends
Not diamonds pearls or riches
But the love of a true GREAT FRIEND!!

Vidushini Siva ~ age 11

"Man invents war. Man discovers peace .He invents war from without.He discovers peace from within.War man throws. Peace man sows.The smile of war is the flood of human blood.The smile of peace is the love, below, above."
