Confused in mind, bereft of soul <br />Through poppy fields I wonder, alone I stroll <br />Where’s the world that I used to know <br />Where’s the love and friendship life did bestow <br /> <br />Alone once again on God’s great land <br />Life’s passed through my hands like grains of sand <br />Is it too much to ask that I have someone to treasure <br />Someone to hold, to love and share pleasure <br /> <br />The feeling of emptiness, sadness and despair <br />Looking for solace, please answer my prayer <br />As I gaze on this land of greenery and flower <br />I understand the gift of nature and might of it’s power <br /> <br />The rolling valleys and hills sweep me off my feet <br />The trees and the rivers greet my eyes oh so sweet <br />So to you mother earth I must thank you for this <br />Saving my soul and delivering me back from the abyss<br /><br />Brian 'Peza' Perrins<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/mother-earth-8/
