There are so many good things and experiences that God has stored up for those who fear Him. All he wants from you is to take refuge in Him and in His safety He will give you these openly.
Psalm 31:19 ( Sandy’s understanding)

1 Mud Earth
Mud slip-slop, moving blobs
Under winter boots sticky-wicky
Down between your summer toes curling curves
Earth our bed
A nourishing, nurturing seed home
Repose of warmth for corms, and roots, through winter's raw
Taking us into its six foot depth
Holy place of heaven, our given MUD, EARTH

2 Earth's nappy and our mop!
Rain on earth
River to the sea
A salty water swirl
Earth where are your store houses?
Water in a puddle on the floor
Little one where is your nappy?
Mum where is the mop?
Water in and out.
Sandy ๐

3 When water doesn't run but only tricles
When green is brown
and trees curl leaves and drop limbs
When fire licks to charcoal
When thirst is mocked by salty seas
Water! Save water!
Life on Earth is all WATER.

The river Thames moving to the sea.

Must be a beautiful place. ๐
It is wonderful to walk beside the Thames
I am sure it is. ๐
From your captures it was a lovely walk! I love your Mud Earth poem, Sandy! ๐ค๐๐ค
Thank you. I enjoyed writing it. That one was the first one the other two were in opposite order.
Wonderful photos and even more wonderful poetry!
Ah, thank you I am having such fun.
Well done! Profound. You sound, sort of, like Sylvia Plath!
Oh, my she got very depressed in her 30’s and … her ending was terribly sad. I didn’t mean to be so sad but rather worried about all the water we need to keep.
