Finding hope in the earth....a poem

by Gwendolyn M Plano

Hope can seem an elusive commodity these days; so it is that with this brief posting, I share some of my hope.

I am a member of the global organization of Treesisters. Quietly but powerfully, this community of women is transforming our beautiful Earth by planting trees. Simple, right? Simple and direct - something that folks like me are drawn to. Recently, the founder wrote a beautiful poem. Her question, Can you hear the wild call of Earth's beckoning? brought me into my heart and my dreams. Perhaps you will find the same.

I so agree, John. It kind of tugs at our nurturing core...and brings us into beauty. Lovely...

Beautiful poem, Gwen with a lot of quiet power and impact behind it. It resonated even more strongly on a second read through.
Thank you for sharing!
