Earth
Teach
Me
Earth teach me stillness as the
grasses are stilled with light.
Earth teach me suffering as
old stones suffer with memory.
Earth teach me humility as
blossoms are humble with beginning.
Earth Teach me caring as the
mother who secures her young.
Earth teach me courage as the
tree which stands alone.
Earth teach me limitation as the
ant which crawls on the ground.
Earth teach me freedom as the
eagle which soars in the sky.
Earth teach me resignation as the
leaves which die in the fall.
Earth teach me regeneration as the
seed which rises in the spring.
Earth teach me to forget myself as
melted snow forgets its life.
Earth teach me to remember kindness
as dry fields weep in the rain.
A Native American
prayer from the
Ute, North American
