Poem
One day, something awful happened Due to the great pollutions on the planet Protina Which were caused by the hand of man All forms of plant and animal life began to die As they began to die, man, too, began to die And he began to search for other planets Planets that could sustain life In other solar systems Eventually, only a few humans remained However, they had developed the technology To build spaceships of an immense size To carry them beyond their own solar system And as these people began to leave Starlong began to weep Because she knew that once again She would be alone However, as Starlong wept Her weeping was heard by Cassandra Who possessed a special ability To feel Starlong's moods Cassandra was a deeply empathetic soul With a tender heart And a powerful love For all living things And she was moved by the weeping of Starlong And she began to weep herself For she could not bear the thought Of Starlong and her loneliness And of all the inhabitants of Protina Who would soon be leaving Cassandra, alone, decided to remain Rather than leave Starlong alone Now Cassandra did what she could to survive To grow a garden To make a home And to save the few remaining plants and animals Because of Cassandra's devotion, and humanity She was granted, by Starlong, the ability To live as one immortal And to be free from all manner of pain and grief And this would be true until Cassandra Looked upon the next human face When she would finish her life And die as well Eventually, the plants and animals were all rejuvenated And they looked to Cassandra, as their daughter And to Protina, as their mother And to Starlong, as their friend.
