Earth Day 2017

Earth Day dawns with exquisite beauty, a crescent moon rising close to Venus an hour before the Sun, our life-giving star.

As the sun warms the California poppies in my front yard, they begin to open.

Hallelujah!  Another day to ride our planet as it spins and moves a million miles or more in its circle around the sun.

Google provides a great cartoon with a little squirrel-person dreaming (fish dying in the ocean, penguins falling off melting icebergs) and then waking with alarm to go do various save-the-Earth activities.

Birds born in the nests tucked under the eaves of my house twitter in the liquid amber tree I planted twenty years ago, now two stories high.

Be well on Earth Day
