Mother, May I

Mother,
    May I eat from your hearty bosom,
Tomatoes so plump and smelling of you?

Mother,
    May I drink from your sacred bowels,
Swim in your crystal seas?

Mother,
    May I climb your glorious mountains,
Smell your evergreen trees?

Mother,
    May I devour your wonderous views?
Colors beyond my imagination!

Mother,
    May I take this moment to show my gratitude...
Thank you, thank you Mother Nature,

Forever,
    Your Daughter
