Earth Day — normabobb

The earth is the macrocosme of who we are. Our job is to be protective of this earth. The health of our children is dependent on the health of Mother Earth. We are mortals, Mother Earth is immortal. Pillaging the earth and bathing her in blood is the reason why in due time we will […]

Canapè di asparagi e uova

Invest in our Planet

The Twisting Tail

The earth is what we all have in common

Wendell Berry

…until we colonize
the Moon and Mars
Then let the rivalry begin


Tricky Dick
Felt the move
Protection was a must
And it helped
To cover-up
A latex thin veil of trust

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was approved by President Richard Nixon in 1970 as a result of the Earth Day movement. Legislation on clean air, clean water, toxic substances, and endangered species were passed, too.

‘Cause I’m
(E.P.A.) No dynamite
(E.P.A.) Fight the fair fight
(E.P.A.) We have a code
(E.P.A.) Repair the erode


A green future is a prosperous future


Hay(na)ku: home

Sing
Our praises
On Mother’s day

The Earth Day Anthem was written in 2013 by Indian poet Abhay Kumar, and has since been recorded in all official UN languages. Link: Here

No greater anthem
Can be . than one
Which unites us all

Shots and Sirens #atozchallenge #Ukraine

penned in moon dust

It was days but it felt like weeks before we saw Vlad and his boys. They all were wearing the ugly tshirts that we had bought at the beginning of our journey before we even knew about a portal.

“We are getting in…” Vlad whispered to my husband. “two or three men only. But we are getting food in and children and babushkas out.”

I put a chair behind Vlad and he immediately slumped into it. I gave him some borscht and brown bread. I had gotten pretty good at making this Ukrainian staple.

I went around to all the men giving them their food and pointing to where they could clean up and rest after dinner. None of the guys complained though there was grime and blood and bruises all over their bodies.

“Vlad what happened…” My husband rushed into the church frantic.

Vlad held up the hand that…

French Fridays, Libraries, and Empathy for Ants?

Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better

Libraries are where the librarians, who find obscure bits of local knowledge, and make great book recommendations live!  This book is among the best books I have read, but I must say that the rule of the first holds: the rest of the books in the series went downhill.  Werber’s other books, too, were interesting from a philosophical point of view, but increasingly irritating as metaphysical works.  This one, however, I am half considering reading again! 

-back in 2015:

Les Fourmis (La saga des fourmis, #1)Les Fourmis by Bernard Werber
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Don’t kill any more ants!!
This book is worth learning French to read. Honestly. It had me worrying for the fate of an ant by page 40! Fascinating swap of perspectives, and hair-raising cliff-hanger ending. I have the 3rd book in this trilogy, but am anxiously waiting to get the 2nd from the library!

Ne tuez plus de fourmis !

मां की पुकार / Mother’s Call

Kaushal Kishore

हमारी मां तो
आज भी बुला रही है
हमें बड़े प्यार से अपनी गोद में,
हमीं इतने बड़े हो गए हैं किंतु
कि छोटी पड़ने लगी है गोद
उसकी हमारे लिए…

🌎 🌎 🌎 🌎 🌎 🌎

Our mother is
calling us even today
with great love in her lap,
but we have grown so much
that her lap has started
falling short for us…

P.S.This is a small tribute to mother earth on World Earth Day.
