Analysis of Mother Earth
The silent nurturer of lyrical sorrows,
Where the sound of star to star seems more deep than human joy and human tears.
Where the harmony of green fields give not only, but the faintless echo.
They say,"Your size is enormous and your shape, sphere".
You look so ample and impassive,
Containing huge mountains, towering tress and bottomless seas.
Everything in you is just fascinating and impressive;
The cry of the winds, the roar of the surging seas,
The fall of streams,
The breaking of the mighty thunder from afar,
The rain that keeps falling into the streams,
The light that illuminates from the brightest star.
You bore living things of all kinds.
You are none to the creatures that live on you but a paradise.
