An Earth Day Poem by William Blake: “The Clod and the Pebble” (1794) |
In this little poem, Blake describes the Clod as yielding and loving — creating heaven on earth. The Pebble is hard and selfish — building hell from the beauty of the world. On Earth Day, we strive together to enable the first and banish the second. Happy Earth Day to all of our members and friends from the A2 staff: Adrien, Dany, Dorothy, Emily, Harriet, Jack, Jessenia, Jon, Karis, Michelle, Michele, Molly, Nathaniel, Stephen, Stewart, and Tani. |
