This Earth

 This Earth


this earth in my hands, that muddies my fingers

was women and men, life's history lingers

it is laughter and joy

it is tears and sorrow

of here today and gone tomorrow

of every life that went before

of creation and decay

times of great hardship

and frivolous, joyous play

This earth has seen hatred, desolation, wars and blood

it has seen smiles, camaraderie and a whole lotta love.

Every individual living thing from this earth did come

we never leave we all stay here, perhaps... maybe we're all one,

when our body disintegrates, where do we go

does our light still shine, none of us know

"doubt is uncomfortable, certainty absurd"

Voltaire said that, they were very words
