Color of The Earth-Frances Ayers Beautiful color of the Earth,that I do love.You strike my senses and fill my soul with glee.Your vibrant hues fill the lovely sky above,And bring out the autumn color of the trees. Your pumpkin hues and copper shades fill the fields.Desserts bright and Midwest skies stun our sight.With glorius light that brightens and yields.You warm me with your healing touch so bright. Yet your fire destroys man and beast around,But also warms all living things on earth.Of molten lava,clay and rock on solid ground,You amaze all with your miraculous birth. Of vibrant fruits the earth does yield to all,Is a tangy bright citrus shaped like a ball.
