Earthliness

One of the radical conditions for happiness.

We stay one with nature, trees, and loveliness. 

For the bond between humanity and the earth. 

We won't let guilt or fear rule our worth.  

Earthliness is what we must embrace. 

For it is our common ground. 

The land, the sea, the sky, and the space. 

From which our lives are bound. 

The air we breathe and the water we drink.

The soil that nurtures our needs. 

All things come from the earth, don't you think? 

It's where our life force feeds. 

But man has taken beyond what he gives. 

And nature's balance is disturbed. 

The earth, our common ground, now lives. 

With resources overused and curbed. 

We must learn to live in harmony. 

With the earth that sustains us all.

For a healthier planet, it's our duty. 

To hear nature's clarion call Reduce, reuse, recycle, and conserve. 

These words are what our creed deserves.
