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...

On Terra Firma In ITQ
The ocean's a drum fault and sheer; to me, breakout from dark, this sphere, that the sunk water lapsing veers — hours of footprints away from here, Missing this density timeless with each sanddollar I will wreck, for today I'm also in shreds — in the foam, this form, it lays death. Like as the deep deep, her I love, and I...

Premium Member UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING PERFECT IN GOD- Dedicated verse for Terra Lynn Abram
His angry screamed at me in silent Her quiet eyes sorely pierced her smile Violently behaving worlds standard Sinless for who’s alive to judge them Labeled a problem you cannot judge them For who am I to hug For whom am I to judge? For who am I to hold, a grudge WHOM AM I TO JUDGE WHEN I DON’T UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING PERFECT...

Ille Terra Lamentum
The consummate scent of Earth's due decay Subdues gently the fervor of Death's perennial Parade, whose incumbent silences the withering leaves Do so barely correct, by singing tremulous or crying to the choral winds. But, as with an inspirited indifference, that incensed breeze yet swept The consummate scent of Earth s due decay Far from that secret tome whence mortal moments...

Terra E Areia
Terra e areia Ricos ou pobres, somos terra e areia, mas, se por acaso, no infortúnio da vida, um vento repentino nos pegar, sempre podemos escolher rolar na praia em dias ensolarados ou na terra dos prados para tapar os buracos no corpo; e felizes seguiremos para fazer mais e mais....

Terra Incognita Hidden! Uncharted eternity birthing Roiling! In a slow dance The pregnant pause of terra’s faults Breaks o p e n In slip strikes Earth’s fiery magma Spit back into the hands of Heaven’s potter Churning! Moody Mercurial Footprint on the landscape’s soul Journey to epiphany and nature’s improvisation New land birthed Uncharted steamy...

Terra Incognita
He had a dream in the still of the night, Someone beckoned on him, Someone implored him to come, He looked distressed and troubled. He was worried He knew it was an urgent plea, But it was a place no one had ever been, It was a place shrouded in mystery. Many had tried to go, Many as such who was entreated to...

Peering beyond reach of human capacity I revolve around the sun in a solar orbit, Looking deep in space for origins of bygone Going way beyond anyone has ever gone, Exploring unknown world of astronomy Searching light from first stars and galaxies Traversing back in time where it all began, Forming our universe after the Big-Bang. Some 13.6 billion light-years my eyes reach, Studying...

*Image of Pelosi Leaves Taipei by BBC. Terra Incognita Diurnal moments margin in my head, As metamorphosis pirouettes hands, Nightmarish recall exit none be said, An armistice mosey in of spilt sands. Logjam beliefs wane gains, prosperity, Erring hand fingered an island nation, Right foresees windfall, voters clarity, Left wins Red China, lost the election. Past oversights also recent letdowns, Amiss twentieth, twenty-first embed, Ruse an angle...

I heard of lands both far and near where wealth beyond tale can conceive. With rivers deep and mountains sheer for the brave to challenge and reave. I heard of them and I believe this call that moves me to explore. I should follow my heart and weave the path where none has gone before. Through legends spread by foe and peer, my...

I know well of a cat's ear, eye, nose, teeth, coat, paws and claws, Do I know, what's behind its look and mysterious pause? I know a dog's acute sense of smell; muscles and fingers, Do I know what's going-on when he quietly lingers? I see my neighbor-child stand exuberantly leaping, I stand in awe, when, within seconds, I see...

The emerald forest uniquely so mystique, as far as I can see beyond the horizon, shrouded by surreal stillness it spreads, wraps me as I amble in rippling breeze. Its charming cadence enthralls my essence suffused with rhapsody. As I walk on the fading forest path around the shadows of ancient trees, the clumps...

In my dream, I sailed away Over the tame waters of a tranquil bay And landed in a magic isle Never set foot before by anyone alive A pleasant retreat of birds and beasts Far removed from world’s dust and heat A terra incognita with a magic spell Hidden away at Nature’s veiled breast The sky was rent with songs of birds The air,...
