THE EARTH ON TURTLE'S BACK

My first impression on earth on turtles back I had in mind it was a turtle with a blue and green shell on its back. I feel like it could be a myth that before land there was nothing but water Before this Earth existed, there was only water. It stretched as far as one could see, and in that water there were birds and animals swimming around. Far above, in the clouds, there was a Skyland. In that Skyland there was a great and beautiful tree. It had four white roots which stretched to each of the sacred directions, and from its branches all kinds of fruits and flowers grew.
