Song for the Earth

By Gerard Traub

This is my song for the earth

for every forest and tree

fields in a dance of flowers

stretching shores to wildest seas.

For your sanctuary and surrender

upon another season and tide

to breathe your air becoming

finding solace in a dawning sky.

For every sentient creature

from chrysalis to bird on wing

each birth of fire rising beyond

into the heart of a lasting spring.

For your worlds of endless wonder

my silence and clarion call

this is my song for the earth

new horizons awakening for all.
