Earth Day
From a distance the world looks blue and green,
and the snow-capped mountains white.
From a distance the ocean meets the stream,
and the eagle takes to flight.
From a distance there is harmony,
and it echoes through the land.
It's the voice of hope, it's the voice of peace,
It's the voice of every man.
Julie Gold 1987
The Earth Comes to Life
For the first time in decades, a bald eagle nests in a saguaro cactus in central Arizona.
Memo to Stuart: Can you get there to take your own picture?
Nice poem and photo. Why is it unusual for the eagle to be in the cactus?
