Marie Athena Occeme Poet Ode

Earth speaking to the universe

o infinite sea of galaxies,
older than memory, wider than dreams,
earth sends you a greeting
on the fragile wings of thought.

we are dust that learned to breathe,
clay that discovered questions,
tiny sparks walking beneath sunlight
while night wraps us in your mysteries.

we watch your rivers of stars
flow across the dark sky,
and in that silent river
our wonder grows deep.

perhaps somewhere beyond our blue horizon
other minds awaken beneath alien dawns,
listening—as we do—
to the music of the endless.

so accept this ode, great cosmos:
a message carved from hope and curiosity.
from forests, deserts, and restless oceans
we salute you.

for though we are small,
our questions are vast—
and our dreams travel
as far as the stars.
