A lake is Earth's eye; looking into which the beholder measures the depth of his own nature.
------Henry David Thoreau
Earth's Eye Can it be clearer? Mirrored in lakes Echoing life, Nature’s pulse is our own.
It is all there. Laid ever so bare, A future borrowed. Low bridge to tomorrow.
Gorging on her bounty, Without thought it started. Neglecting her signs-- Used and discarded.
Rivers and fields
Given to man
Need to be healed,
While we still can.
-----G. Hill

The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work it and keep it.
-----Genesis 2:15
