“A bit of earth,
She wants a little bit of earth.
She'll plant some seeds.
The seeds will grow,
The flowers bloom
Their beauty just the thing she needs.
A bit of earth,
A drop of dew,

A single stem begins to rise.
That bit of earth
Although I love flowers very much, I won’t see them when I’m gone. So in lieu of flowers:

Sleeping in the Forest
— Mary Oliver
I thought the earth
remembered me, she
took me back so tenderly, arranging
her dark skirts, her pockets
full of lichens and seeds. I slept

The Fairy Shepherd
by Cicely Fox Smith
When stars come gleaming one by one,

When he lies warm in bed,
But I run leaping with my flock,

Don't fall in love with a woman who reads,
a woman who feels too much,
a woman who writes...
Don't fall in love with an educated,
magical, delusional, crazy woman.

It's not too late... the angel said.
Even though the world's a mess...
Even though you're not as young...
