Earth (Refrain Stanza) Poem by Gert Strydom

You are the source from where all things come
earth, you are our eternal great planet home,
one day I will be of you a part
when in you I lie in my flesh, bones and heart
or maybe before that time God will me in heaven welcome
if I do exist when He does appear
and in a time you will pass into fire and fear
when nothing more do of my verses and words become,
earth, you are our eternal great planet home,
