许其正：土香

抓一把土，放近鼻尖，闻一闻，哇，好香！

是的。土是香的。它散发出浓浓的香味，到处飘飞。如果有一天，土不香了，那就可悲了。

生命是不能离开土的。它是生命之源，之泉。任何生命，都需要土；如果离开土，即使不死亡，也难以维持长久生存。

植物，无论是花，是草，是树木，不管是作物，是果树，有哪一样可以不要土？

动物，是飞禽也罢，是走兽也罢，是昆虫也罢，以至水中的鱼类，有哪一样可以不要土？

至于自称“万物之灵”的人类，又何能例外？又何能不需要土？没有土能生存下去吗？

不！不可能！无论何时，我们都需要土。没有土，我们便无以立，无以生，无以长。即使死了，我们还需入土，回归于土。

是的。需要入土，需要回归于土，无论是动物，是植物，是人，绝无例外！

所以，我们要爱护土。土是很香的。它们不时散发出浓浓的香味。它们不时提供生命之源，之泉，滋养我们，让我们得以立，得以生，得以长；我们怎能不爱护，不回报？

如果有一天，土不香了，那就可悲了。
