How Swiftly The Years
How swiftly the years fall into each other,
the past compressed underground
in layered deposits of Memories.
Some remain hidden, others found
of use, or not, as Life continues
circling ‘round Earth’s fleeting Ages,
years under water or under ground.

I’m not an activist or influencer but even ordinary people like me can acknowledge this day in our own way. I think other nations could do well to adopt such a day also. I’m sharing an old poem and old pics of flowers I felt suitable to add.
This Earth, this Planet, this Orb
ever in motion through Space,
this Home away from Home
here in the Realms of Physicality,
this dance of Life through Grace,
how can we not see, understand
your Nature expressing Divinity-
Divine Skies, Sacred Waters, Holy Lands
everywhere, all that you are
being and becoming, this Earth.
You are a Great Wonder and I am in awe.
