Terra Nova - New Earth

What if humans fled to a distant star? Seeking a better world, but traveling far? Missing the truth, that Earth was the best. Leaving behind a planet, to find eternal rest. Two paths lay ahead, for Mother Earth to roam. A path of rebirth, or a destructive home. She chose the path of renewal, where memories bloom. Cribbing years together, about a species in tune. The architectures crumble, as relics of the past. Books that once held knowledge, now decay so fast. The buildings whisper secrets, with a haunted sigh. As elephants and wolves roam, with a curious, wandering eye. Tigers and leopards stalk, through the empty streets. Ruling over a kingdom, where humans once held seats. But as the centuries pass, Mother Earth begins to heal. Embracing the wild, and all its secrets reveal. If Mother Earth chose to regenerate the wild, she unleashes her power, in a symphony of storms. The tsunamis rise high, the earthquakes hit and fade. She flushes out the human inventions, and a new world is made. Oh, there go the buildings that stood tall long ago. Through this furious storm, she purifies herself, and starts anew. She recreates the creatures with care, and fosters them with love. She learns from her mistake, the mistake of evolution from above. The ecosystem regenerates, in harmony and balance true. Streams flow in the mountains, animals roam the planets anew. Life bursts forth in vibrant hues, as Mother Earth starts to thrive. She forgets the past, but learns from it, and a new world comes alive. She creates magical elements, elements that will never harm. Till the sun never rises, till she loses her form. But for now, she shines so bright, in all her radiant might. A new dawn breaks, and Mother Earth takes flight.
