Caressing The Earth Poem by suzan gumush

Caressing The Earth

Rating: 3.5


The Moon is my night
And the sun is my light
The air that I breathe
Caresses me.....
The sea is my flow
And the earth is where I grow
To blossom and explore
Tis the life I'd like to adore
Into a world
Filled with a heaven that I know

I like the ways you use the metaphors of moon, night, sun, light, air, sea, earth. The repetition is effective: “...is my...” with the breaks of “The air....” and “To blossom...” Worth reading again and again.

Very beautiful, sort of pantheistic view on life and earth.

Yes, Mother Earth (like any other mother on earth) cares for us and caresses us with her several arms like the Air etc. Maternal love is seldom found wanting but it is filial love that often falters. Your poem reminds us that we should also prove ourselves worthy of the love of Mother Earth. Since we are all the children of the same Mother Earth, we should stop bickerig and turn our attention to serving her in the best possible manner with our hands locked in fraternal friendship. A fine piece of poem.
