the earth has many hidden treasures

secrets that the observant discover 

it’s like a deep well 

of cool fresh water

found in a place few would look

because the world, the earth, gives radiant deep dwelling gifts

it picks the right time for it to be revealed 

it is so patient

even through the pain and anger

it bestows so much love 

courage

hope

relief

and wisdom

deep within all of this resides 

making its home until accessed

until tapped at the right point

for the right purpose

and then

it flows

freely
