Squealing and pale
Each breath taken 
Discomfort to its insides
A gift from you to us
With so much love
A continuation of our being
An extension of ourselves
And a replica of what you are
We love you Mother,
Blood seeping into the ground
Beautiful and gruesome all at once
Loss and love in one breath
Cut down harshly
But taken with such softness
It belies what we see
We feel the hurt
But we know the strength it took
To take away even more pain
We love you Mother,
Bodies gyrating to an ancient rhythm 
One of soul and love and covenant
The promise by blood
Made wordless, as one
A connection of mind and body and spirit
Functional and spiritual
Beautiful and pleasurable
A gift from you
To take us beyond ecstasy
We love you Mother,
The fragrance of bloom
The radiance of colours
Sweet sonorous sounds
Fearful noises of power
Inter dependent on one another
A combination of joy and fear
Love and hate 
Born of one line, bound by one cord
Inexplicably linked
We love you Mother,
Hunter over prey
Prey over hunter
The will of the Supreme supersedes
As to which shall take the trophy
The crushing of the weak beneath our hands
The fall of the strong to become nothing
The crunch of bones to fill a belly
The hunter and the hunted
The hunted and the hunter
A never-ending cycle
Balanced by your grace
We love you Mother
Anarchy reigns supreme
Mothers children turn on one another
The struggle to rise
To see what lies at the top
Makes us forget who we are 
And the cord that binds us#
The link that holds us
We trample on mothers head
And kill our mothers children
And then we cover ourselves with thin veils
To hide the truth of what we really are
We forget,
Oh we forget,
That mothers know all and see through all,
But she never takes offence
Oh, not mother,
Her provisions for us never stops 
Her love for us never wavers
Thank you mother,
We love you Mother Nature.
