When Do You Cry Mother Earth

When do you cry, Mother Earth?
In the morning I cry, and you call it the dew. I call it a wakeup
call.I cry and no one is around to listen. Do you see my beauty? Do you see how I can inspire you? Do you see? I have life; I have shape;
I have all you need if you only see.

Show me how you move as inspired by my beauty. Peace,
be still and know that I am God, is what is said by God. Peace, be still and know that I am Mother Earth, is said by me.

When do you cry Mother Earth?
In the noon day I cry, and you call it the sun rain. I call it
the tears of God. You cut the trees that sway with movement of the angels. You cut the tall grass that shimmers when caressed by the winds. You pollute the waters that rush the shores with
crashing motions that shape the edges of the earth.

Show me how you move as inspired by what grows on me and runs through me. Peace, be still and know that I am God, is what is said by God. Peace, be still and know that I am Mother Earth, is said by me.

When do you cry Mother Earth?
In the evening I cry and you call it the summer storm.
I call it yearning for answers. Sounds of the night storm . . .
what feelings do they bring? I hold out my hand and feel the drops on my palm as I close it and open it again.

The drops of rain that could help the next tree to
grow have just taken residence on me. Show me how you move as inspired by my nourishment. Peace, be still and know that I am God, is what is said by God. Peace, be still and know that I am
Mother Earth, is said by me.

When do you cry Mother Earth?
I cry always. I cry eternally. I cry continuously until the
second coming of our Lord. I cry and ask my requests through my tears. I request no more war. I request no more destruction for just any reason of that which grows out of me. I request love to be shown to all that walk on me. I request salvation in the hearts of all
that have hardened them towards my God.

I request this, and I request it now. Show me how you move
as inspired by my cry. Peace, be still and know that I am God, is what is said by God. Peace, be still and know that I am Mother
Earth,is said by me.

When do you cry Mother Earth?
I cry happy tears, and you call it Spring time showers. I cry
when I am happy, when new flowers spring forth, when life is restored, oh yes, when life is restored--- I stand, and I cry.

Life of the lily’s, life of the rose, daffodils and daisy’s.
Life of the sinner that has been converted after being baptized in
my river. I cry, oh yes, I cry because I am happy and know that there is hope. The cry of hope, that is my cry. Show me how you move as inspired by my cry of hope. Peace, be still and know that I am
God, is what is said by God. Peace, be still and know that
I am Mother Earth, is said by me.

When do you cry, Mother Earth?
I am Mother Earth, filled with hope and promise. I cry for me but mostly I cry for you, that is, when I cry. I cry for you.
