What to Focus On

  • The poem is a collective prayer for environmental healing.
  • The speaker uses We to show unity and shared responsibility.
  • The first part focuses on nature: land, water, air, forests, plants, creatures, seas, sunlight, and stars.
  • A refrain is a repeated line in a poem or song.
  • A refrain usually conveys the central idea.
  • The refrain of this poem is We join with the earth and with each other.
  • The first three stanzas focus on land, water, air, forests, plants, creatures, seas, sunlight, and stars.
  • Restore means to bring back to an original or former condition.
  • Refresh means to make fresh and pure again.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The refrain of the poem is 'We join with the earth and with each other' only because the line appears many times, but it has no special importance.

The first three stanzas and the last two stanzas say the same thing about nature.

The words 'celebrate' and 'rejoice' mean the sea, sunlight, and stars are being treated like festival events.
