Earth Prayers is a must read for anyone who loves this planet. There are too many good poems in this book to list but I'll post one that I feel fits the upcoming Samhain
Do not stand at my grave and weep
I am not there. I do not sleep
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you wake in the morning hush
I am the swift, uplifting rush
of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave
and weep.
I am not there. I do not sleep.
Joyce Fossen
