Analysis of Mother Earth



Untamed maiden of the mountains,

You soar with golden eagles,

No malice has ensnared you,

As you roam in harmonious joy,

Dancing to the enchanting call of morning birds,

The mischievous wind your playful friend,

All the while from daunting heights,

You welcome the vastness before you,

Your essence enticed forth,

In hypnotic trance,

You are elevated,

Beyond conscious thought,

Unveiling the unconscious truth,

You have unraveled the riddles,

And are showered with the rain of wisdom,

Eternal balance your swaying chant,

As you are crowned mother earth.
