A Harvest Of Golden Treasured Corn

gold of the ripe cornfield, the harvest of all crops
is true wealth of a nation blessing on populations
paper money worn dirty gold silver make poor meals
wide lands fields planted ablaze with earth blessings

peasants generations passing plough hand tie blessings
lines land fed birth defined pierces past clod sky clouds
line in soil ties all ecosystems global to fertile interactions
interactive life light water plants animals microorganisms

created environment life webs spun balanced functional units
ecosystems earth womb bestows life community organisms
large communities vibrant species adapted to varying conditions

water heat soil food water shelter thrive in ice Arctic polar bears
fat layered oil rich fish thrive in ice Antarctic emperor penguins
death threat is man not natural phenomena fire disease predators
