Art Of Earth Poem by Maria Sudibyo

Mother of nature, pretty goddess
Blue jewel, Eden’s drop
God’s darling, devil’s thrill
Earth is all creatures home

Whether barren, whether fertile
Whether buried, whether cultivated
From dangerous mountain, to the deepest hadal
Earth is source of living

Culture’s wisdom, war’s territory
Miracle’s drama, disaster tragedy
Dance of plant, song of animal
Earth is the guardian spirit

The evolution, the selection
The mood of season, the squirm of dragon
History’s trail, future’s hope
Earth never stops to grow

The place we stand, the sky we stare
The joy we drain, the doom we scared
Should be protected, till the last death
Earth is our beloved land and water
