Amazing Amazon

I’m as old as creation, yet, I’m still in my youth I am all things to millions of species Most of which are yet unknown Deep and full of never ending riches Untold mysteries lie hidden, deep within my bosom I commune with my new born while they nurse at my breasts Potent secrets imparted are locked within their hearts I am beautiful! I am lush green Embellished by colors of the rainbow I call down streams from mountains and valleys They cohabit my mighty river This feeds my offspring from far and wide Perhaps I hold the key to end all diseases And if left to flourish, there is no end to what I'd give
