Two Mothers

Watched National Geographics "Amazing Planet"
Loved how the narrator referred to the Earth as " ...a restless blue planet with a red and violent soul; powered by the molten rock that lies beneath, it explodes, slithers, jerks and sloshes. And sometimes kills" When describing the Earth and its molten magma core.

And so I pictured a volatile indifferent and yet giving Mother Earth and separate from her slower to anger daughter Mother Nature.
 Her hair is molten magma and always flowing, her body is water and the waves, while her limbs are the  metal and rock of her crust. She is the dancing partner of Father Moon, forever waltzing together.
Her hair is the tangle and upward reaching plants that bend to gravity, her body is all wood and bark with moss grown in to her torso, Her ears are where the Fairies inherited theirs from because she is the mother of the trees and plants and the grandmother of the Fey.
