Mother Nature forgot all about it

It was time for spring to arrive

That winter had passed already

The flowers were waiting to thrive

But the temperatures didn’t budge

Making the trees remain quite rigid

Seems winter wanted to stay a bit more

Leaving the rest of us rather frigid

But buds are beginning to appear

So we hope, and dream, the cold is gone

Until the weatherman calls for snow again

And we realize, winter hasn’t moved on

In the silence of the night
I could hear her calling
Whispers, through the glass

In the silence of the night
I could feel her presence
As by me, she did pass

In the silence of the night
Wisps of hair, on my face
Danced, like a beautiful ballet

In the silence of the night
She had drawn me outside
And I let her take me away

Jupiter decided to take over Earth
A much larger planet was he
So he jumped over Mars
Left behind many stars
Claiming this would be Earth’s apogee

Earth just smiled, as she waited
Tempted Jupiter to take his shot
Sent him off, quite impaired
Turned around and declared
It would seem that size matters not!

They loved to call her Shadow
Blending in, with foreign sands
Dressed in black, she is darkness
Sharpened sword, held in her hand

She fights the voices, defiantly
They speak evil, to her mind
Wicked thoughts, aplenty
Still, she seeks, until she finds

Wisps of dust, twirling round her
In this place, behind the moon
She watches them create this world
Made up of endless dunes

Trapped inside the sands of time
Caught, in a lasting drought
Shadow returns to her darkness
In the valley of her doubt
