Elizabeth Odell

Elizabeth Odell

Flat outstretched upon a mound

Of earth I lie; I press my ear

Against its surface and I hear

Far off and deep, the measured sound

Of heart that beats within the ground.

And with it pounds in harmony

The swift, familiar heart in me.

They pulse as one, together swell,

Together fall; I cannot tell

My sound from earth’s, for I am part

Of rhythmic, universal heart.


Primitive peoples respect for Nature and Mother Earth as quoted by Weston A Price in Nutrition and Physical Degeneration.
