I honor the organic garden
I honor the industrial farm
I honor the field of prairie grass
I honor the brown field
I honor the rock atop the mountain
I honor the clay crushed beneath the condo
I honor the sand beneath the sea
I honor the sand fracturing oil beds
I honor coal deposits
I honor diamond deposits
I honor the leaching landfill
I honor the melting permafrost

I will not disparage earth herself
Holder of all suffering
Living manifestation of what is sacred
Together we will cross to the other shore
