Father Sky watches over Mother Earth
A beautiful poem~
Mother Earth - Father Sky ~*Marge Tindal*~ Shyly, she peeks up from her bed seeking the dew of the morn knowing that he is bathing her in the sunshine of his adorn
From on high he watches as she dresses for the morning sending the light from his eyes to the glow of her adorning
On her shouldering mountains a meadowlark in song filling the valley below with a morning sing-a-long
He sends to her soft breezes to carry songs across the land watches as the rivers flow with just the touch of her hand
She looks to the skies in awe knowing he is there sending down the gentle rains filling the crevices that she wears
He sometimes covers her playground with deepening shadows of gray serving as a respite shading the heat of day
She pirouettes in colors proudly across the land knowing that he sends the seasons gently from his hand
When day is done he sends the moon to set her aglow with stars aplenty crossing the sky just so
She smiles in easy shadows glistening with the beams knowing he set the stars to twinkle in her dreams
Mother Earth - Father Sky gloriously wed Tread her trails lightly then lift your head
You will have envisioned the greatest dance of time Mother Earth - Father Sky caught in the rhythm of rhyme
God has made the marriage to last until time slips away Mother Earth for a lifetime Father Sky for always

How incredibly sensual and poetic. Never thought of Mother Earth and Father Sky in this way, but truly loved it.
