This Earth is Astounding

                                 This Earth is astounding

                                 She has withstood the test of Father Time.

                                 Moved beyond shovel, coal,  and mine
                                
                                 Still holds secrets ; supernaturally sublime

                                 So, why not sit in respect; divine?

                                 She's yours
                                 Ours ..
                                 and mercifully .. MINE!
