Daily Healing Images

Each weekday morning, Morning Earth subscribers receive by email a photo/poem which celebrates a gift from Earth. For several years poet John Caddy has been e-mailing healing images of the wild in photos and poems to some fifteen hundred classrooms and persons on five continents. These morning poems are archived here, with clickable thumbnails.

Morning Earth Healing Images 2.3.2012

Within the Mother Earth,
all her children coil
waiting to be born.
Here the furled leaf
unrolls to light,
the tube’s green mouth
a trumpet heralding dawn.

So curled once I,
and so curled you.

Note: My photos are captured instants which I use to trigger memory. My short-term memory is damaged from stroke, and this is my adaptation. These are not illustrated poems, nor are they captioned photos. These Morning Earth Entries are a unity that replays an intense moment of direct sensory experience--and a bit of its nourishment.

~John Caddy
