Earth And Words Poem by Sharron Stephenson

please stay in my beating heart
place your cold hand in my loving embrace
stream your strength into the eyes of peace
walk into the water of courage
fight away the pain of corners and wings

hours afloat calls the powers of arrows
and diamonds
buried beneath the walls of rust and clay
a mixture of mental and wisdom
drives the pilot and dreams

pour the flames and reach for the highest
mountain
spread the word of the eagle's flight

tend the flock of each and every human
and creature on the earth we live
