Like a mother you,
give it all to your offspring.
And they take and take.
…
You are forgiving.
Green veins and pumping blue heart.
Branches around us.
…
From the smallest bug,
to the biggest animal.
You feed, and you feed.
…
Forgive us our greed,
give us time to mend your pain.
For we all need you.
