Perhaps One Day - For Avatar

(a Triple Triolet)

Where blues and purples dominate,
Pandora beckons from beyond.
Entranced by it, I gravitate. . . 
Where blues and purples dominate,
a way of life to celebrate
and with creation, share a bond.
Where blues and purples dominate,
Pandora beckons from beyond.

There stands a tall strong mother tree,
and mountains float upon the sky.
What many wonders you can see!
There stands a tall strong mother tree
inside this forest fantasy;
take hold a huge bright beast and fly!
There stands a tall strong mother tree,
and mountains float upon the sky.

Perhaps one day we’ll understand,
as did the one named Avatar,
to live in peace, stand hand in hand.
Perhaps one day we’ll understand
to say “I see you;” love our land;
no need to leave and travel far!
Perhaps one day we’ll understand
as did the one named Avatar.

Not a strictly romantic movie, but it involves love of nature as well as a romantic part between the leads. And I LOVED this movie and its message!

Dear Andrea, I too saw Avatar and my mind is still filled with the visions I beheld and the story and the message it so clearly and heart-wrenchingly conveyed as does the magnificent poem.

My grandson went to see the movie. Just the scenes on tv seemed scary to me. Glad that you enjoyed and got a good message from it. Sara

In answer to your Ga comment, it usually is not this cold here. We usually have 50+ degree days and occasional dropped down at night to 20's but not often. We got a dusting of snow, nothing to play in. thanks for your comments.
