While perusing for a set of poems, I stumbled upon "June Night" by Sara Teasdale. Like most of Sara's poetry, this poem has a solemnity to it. Immediately, upon reading her poetry, three words came to mind: solitude, sincerity, and love. I adapted the poem into the following text: Oh, Earth you are too dear tonight, How can I sleep, while all around Floats rainy fragrance and the far Deep voice of the ocean that talks to the ground? Oh Earth, you gave me all I have, I love you, Earth. This adapted text resulted in Song for Mother Gaia, which is just that a song for Earth, showcasing my love for our beautiful planet. I have always loved nature, and part of that love, I believe, comes from the fact that some form of it has always surrounded me. This composition explores many different colors that mimic a beautiful transient moment of daydreaming, appreciating the wonders and beauty of what I call this huge green planet, home.
