Best Earths Poems
I don't want to say goodbye
I want to say I tried
I leave you with these prayers
These ashes that I see, that haunt me in my dreams
Must be the dreams that burn
The change your hearts will feel
The water that you drink
The food you choose to eat
Can change the path we take
I know you're only one
But many look to you
The choices that you make
The forests that they burn
For profits in the aisle
Make homelessness a curse
This fragile crust of earth
This precious place called home
Is gone in just a flash
The rising seas of change
Are flooding as I write
I put these words in ink
One poets only wish
Is that I show the world
The change begins with me
I sing for all to hear, it's not too late to act
Tho devastation is at hand, the tide can
slowly change, if each of you can see
The choices that you make
Will thunder 'round the world

Is Mans Destruction by Earth
In the not to distant future
when the Clouds are gone forever
And an Omen is reality at best
Technology, and greed for more
Resources not replenished
beginning of the end of Human quest
When the skies no longer cater
to the feathered ones of Nature
and the food chain slowly dwindles, day by day
When the Corn and Wheat cease growing
and the Rice dies from the Waters
man will surely know that Hunger's on its way
When you take away the Flowers
and you use up all the Forests
and the Waters are no longer safe at all
Then the rest will slowly Perish
leaving man alone to wonder
if the Air he breathes, will last until the fall
When the Privileged are the only ones
on Artificial Air
the rest of us?
We'll be just History past
another Mars or Moon perhaps? A Desolate Domain
Supply runs out, and that will be their last.....

translucent waters
in meandering journey
ancient paths taken
Oh matchless our delight does never end
ceaseless variety of kingdom you defend
unending the exploration of the world around
photography of new discovery found
Within the caves growth of limestone formations
lattice work and crystal chandelier creations
eons of history where water carries matter
to build visions new and particles to scatter
Exquisite designs to view above and below
daily something unknown has made it’s show
rainforests beset with capacious greenery
extensive with volumne the expanse of scenary
We confine ourselves to the walls of city
and alienate ourselves to all that is pretty
though we hail the lives of those who explore
who search the heavens and of earths floor
Infinite the knowledge the origin of planet
diversity of species of gems and stones granite
consider the growth and composition of stone
movement of water and pressure them hone
All know that many gems are formed under pressure
and human character like tested with measure
Like jewels are cut to ornament the treasure
God molds each and everyone to his pleasure
Hail I do men that fathom grotto’s and caves
like ancient seamen went skimming the waves
courage required here tis for no knaves
those who travel here are only the braves
Boldly do men survey the planets secrets
forge the trails and navigate the seaships
track and map untamable habitats
where creatures thrive on sulfur but we collapse
In darkened caverns their ever present night
there do dwell creatures with self contained light
each creature for it’s environments design is right
diverse the living things concealed from our sight
Scarcely tapped fathomless in it’s diversity
what could one discover if occupy eternity
all those who become Gods Sons possess the ages
not constrained by death or times gauges

Gentle lapping of the waves
An angry raging sea
Wild powerful destructive winds
A gentle whisper through the trees
Golden sun warmly smiling
Or scorching heat with fires igniting
Clouds eyes delicately weeping
Or flooding earth with waters rising
Mother Nature speaks
Sharing her moods and emotions
Advising of her control
Silent words spoken
I wish to be free
Fly the sky and swim the sea
Breathe in the earths love
Seething volcanoes,
Earth’s fire power fighting back.
Man has fracked earth’s soul
He’ll feel her sharp, stinging bite,
As she spews up fiery wrath.
Over looked by mount “Kilimanjaro”,
In 8 sq miles in the City Arusha near the “Merelani hills”,
limited quantities from our earths depths do we borrow,
the pseudo name “Tanzanite” draw many thrills,
A unique gem from the “Zoisite family”,
beautiful bright blue to purple in colour and rare,
discovered 1960, renamed for popularity
only found in Tanzania to be completely fair.
Colour and clarity Rates high in the world,
as one of the most amazing in jewelry you see,
so many relationships, love endorsed and toes curled,
forever in our lives this rare glistening stone shall be.

Fire and brimstone earth has formed
Not always was it that this planet moon adorned
But after core formed earth was hit by planet size of mars
That created the moon making our planet unique in system maybe all systems of stars
The moon formed a tilt and seasons came to earth
Algae formed from very primitive life and generated oxygen without which earth
Would be just a ball of dirt
And stage was set for complex life to evolve on earth
But the very primitive was life at the beginning for certain
Yet what if this life would combine with life that could generate cold fusion
Life that could create neural flame
Life that being able to control universes laws would proclaim
As mathematical nirvana is at the base
Immortality grows to omnipotence and forces beyond that find their place
The destiny and things even more profound in counterbalance show their brilliance
Spirit grows beyond its bounds and visage beyond math is above it all creating new essence
The essence grows with starting point higher than this very visage is
From there every esoteric thing from this point of view understood is
Esoteric from this previous or next point of view are all equal in an abyss
Together they form divine bliss
But what if this grand force would be just a base
Like very primitive life that on earth firs found its place
What if this life combined with what is divine compare to it?
This new form could accomplish almost every feat
Yet this idea also at the base of my thought is
What kind of idea would form if thought belonging to this form is?
The ever growing nature of this system would form new continuity of time
And that is what makes this power so sublime
Because earth was hit by planet size of mars
It is unique in systems of stars
It might even have its own soul
And if man follows the earth’s light the earth might have already shaped in him greatest life form of all
The window of the earth
Here's the spirit of peace
the way Getting to the past
Here's the culture and history
Blended together walking the future
With the tattoos of temporary beauty,
Stays forever in memory
the shades of life
and the story of beautiful goddess
the human belief of natural being upheld.
I love you peace. Let's sail together. Layag Sug!

Playing with the waves
You can feel the ocean breathe
With earth's life tempo
In beginning our plant earth was a ball of ice
heat from it's core created a paradise
creating oceans, seas lakes and rivers
fresh water essential life givers
over years earths heart was melted
our planet became splendid
creating pure fauna
beauty no trauma
rich minerals
essentials
frost to
thaw.

The rain speaks in Morse
Code against my skin.
A language I long to
Speak.
Truths of life hidden
In the tears of
The earth. Tales
Of love blown by
The wind.
Wars leech from
The earth as
I pray, teach me.
We look for answers
All the while
Walking atop them.
Beauty cast out
By bombs of concrete
And asphalt.
Sadness woven
Into young hearts
To innocent to understand.
The earth speaks in
Drums and oh
How I wish I could
Speak Morse code.

Guns. Liars. Blood.
War gets harsher,
A child's sock lies beneathe the collapsed orphanage,
It's singed at the edges with crimson blood staining its innocence.
The earth gets warmer,
A young polar bear cries out for the family it has lost,
He searches for a place where the ice is still cold.
Society gets crueller,
A teenager falls onto the bathroom floor in uncontrollable sobs,
She is searching for an escape from the pain.
The earth's self esteem is dangerously low.
It is because it's most advanced species is killing it.
