Soil is a vital particle
A particle that stands as a representative
Plants and animals emerge
Insects thrive joyfully
Soil is a vital particle
That carries animals and plants of all kinds
Even rain responds because of the soil
For there is a connection like a procession
It is a shell that animals and plants celebrate
Soil is a vital particle
Fertility is a diamond within it
Where good things are found
And it acts like a source of light energy
Soil is a vital particle
It transports animals
And protects the essence of plants
Destroys the strong connections of the soil
Will an egg produce a being?
It is best to preserve the morphology of the egg to build a clean world.
The poet Michael Mussa emphasizes how crucial soil is for life on Earth, referring to it as a "vital particle" and underscoring its essential role in supporting a diverse range of living organisms. He portrays soil as the "foundation" from which plants and animals arise and flourish, highlighting its importance as the cornerstone of ecosystems.
This vitality is illustrated by the way insects thrive within it, representing a vibrant, interconnected web of life that is rooted in soil.
The imagery presents soil not merely as dirt but as a living, dynamic entity that nurtures all forms of life.
