Erda - an art work by T Newfields

E R D A


From the Earth –
that fragrant womb of consciousness
that terrestrial blanket beneath our feet
that fertile loam and p
lace which roots & tendrils seek
we came.

To the Earth –
that patient soil of all possibilities
that matrix in which worms feast
that bed where countless creatures breed
and museum with three bil
lion years of history
we return.
