Earth Thought For The Day

“The sun,
with all those planets revolving around it
and dependent on it,
can still ripen a bunch of grapes
as if it had nothing else in the universe to do.

~ Galileo ~

Thought of the Day

I think that I shall never see
A poem lovely as a tree.
A tree whose hungry mouth is prest
Against the earth’s sweet flowing breast;
A tree that looks at God all day
And lifts her leafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in Summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair;
Upon whose bosom snow has lain;
Who intimately lives with rain.
Poems are made by fools like me,
But only God can make a tree.

~ Joyce Kilmer ~

“Trees,” 1914

Thought for the Day

“The American people have a right
to air that they and their children
can breathe without fear.”
