everything which is natural which is infinite which is yes

Happy Earth Day!!

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

i thank You God for most this amazing
day:for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky;and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes

(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun's birthday;this is the birth
day of life and love and wings:and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)

how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any-lifted from the no
of all nothing-human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?

(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)

.eta: Now with music from Nny: [i thank You God for most this amazing day]. It's a gorgeous choral piece, arranged by Eric Whitacre. ♥

You know, there's a lot of people I'm not terribly keen on (your fabulous selves excepted, of course!), but I am rather fond of this awesome planet we live on. I mean, look:















And let's not forget the [narwhals]. And so many other fabulous things!

Yay, Earth! ♥
