Exploring New Worlds

As the ocean reaches out its hand Wind circulates its natural fan Greeting the water’s kind gesture A sandy shore with much need for an investor Out in the distance there was a visual show Dialogue could be heard ‘land ho’ Planting a flag was a must On the enchanted discovery needing to learn trust Fertile soil looking to be raided Instead trinkets were traded Calling themselves explorers Not thinking about confrontation where they would turn into warriors Such a new world Beautiful and innocent girl These visitors decided to take some time Pull out the wine And dine Enjoying the stay While getting their way Centuries passed This young lady grew up really fast One island to the north Found some worth Turned into a city While coastal areas using recreation to stay pretty National and state parks were ordered Due to safety and preservation was reported Beauty is there To be shared If anyone really cares European curiosity made the find And built a modern civilization which shines Portions have been in decline Self-destruction and daily grind Could be to blame Blowing out the eye sores flame Those who came from the boats Hopefully were not here to insult Just individuals searching for a place Needing a survival base As we forge on to the unknown Testing the boundaries presenting a humble tone Will there be a non-human scare In the galactic air Or will the clouds make peace with the sun Shaking hands when the day is done Knowing they light up our global space Leaving a smile on the moon’s face
