Look at me,
See me.
For billions of years, I have been feeding and giving and renewing.
You have received from me everything that you now think that you don't need,
Everything that you are now neglecting, everything that is now withering.
Notice me,
Feel me.
Stressed and pressed between screens in your cities,
Go out into nature, come to me.
The peaceful meadow, the flourishing tree, the singing bird in the treetop -
They will not wait forever behind your screen. Come out now and become part of me.
Love me,
and I will love you,
And again, I will give you everything and we will flourish anew.
