Under Our Feet - Sunday 160

It is easy to forget that under our feet
and under the floors
and tarmac
and pavements

under the grass of the fields
and flowers

under everything...
lies earth


Written for -

So True. Yet we still seem to want to cover her up with our black tar and concrete. Great 160. Thanks for playing.

Lovely, poetic, and true. In the country growing up, it was less easy to forget...

I love the earth - especially digging in the soil with my bare hands when gardening. Great 160!
