Glow bright, as world’s collide

Seek out the shadows of night

Covered in clouds, I cannot see

The dimming of your light

Earth has overshadowed you

Only darkness on your face

Until the sun reclaims the sky

All is not well, in outer space

Moon set slowly, do not leave

Your face, I need to see

For only you can understand

The emptiness, inside of me

Grown from the land

In which she is planted

Rhododendron blossoms

And the world is enchanted

Fragrant perfume, she releases

With every bud that blooms

Mother Earth’s triumphant child

From her earthly womb

Perfection she has given

To what was only seed

Grown into a majesty

Her matriarchal deed

Happy Earth Day!!

I hang my swing upon a star

Tie it tightly, so I shall not fall

Move my legs, back and forth

Gaining height, though I am small

Feel the winds across my face

As my body begins to swoon

The atmosphere captures me

I’m getting closer to the moon

Behind me hides the setting sun

Casting shadows across the Earth

As I look down upon my home

I wonder, “What’s it all worth?”

Maybe I’ll stay up here awhile

In the heavens, there’s nothing I lack

Perhaps one day, I will return to say

I’ve been to the moon and back

Drawing new life, from the universe
I remove the madness, end the curse

Shine, in my own spiritual light
Earth below me, a glorious sight

Sends up fire, to brighten the dark
In my soul, ever creating, a spark

A flare in the sky, exploding with power
This is my one, though not, final hour

To make good, for all I have sinned
My life, total chaos, the perfect whirlwind

Now calms, with the stars, sparkling bright
Transcending my thoughts, deep into night

Awakened refreshed, the burden, now lifted
My reminder that God, this life, He has gifted

To me, and only me, to discover my worth
Before my life ends, tis my living rebirth
