Earth Library Revelations

The earth library is giving up revelations daily --

I search the news and one day it's

a fossil fish that evolved to have

legs and walk on land,

to become what we know as the crocodile.

Then a report on old civilizations like

Pompeii, where life has been

prefectly preserved for

centuries, the earth giving up treasures,

for study and new knowing.

These folks knew the world was round,

as a sculpture of Atlas was

revealed, complete with his global sphere.

I noticed the earth had given up this

piece of beautifully coloured iron,

just the other day, down by the

sea side near the Hermitage forest. The

earth had just decided to reveal it.

No doubt it has its own story to tell.

Perhaps with all these things, with

earth slowly revealing itself, it's

wise to sit and read, and change our

minds?
