Welcome to Gaia! ::

Fire [Lava]

Molten lava seeps
down the ridged walls
of the city of paradise.
Burning ash cackles
as it leaps into life.
The perfect sky renovates
into a collage of nightmares.
Cities become distraught with rage.

(The flaming bush discovered
by Moses comes to haunt
the world once more.)

Ocean

Sea
water
soothes
my soul.
Ocean waves
crash to
the
beat of
my spirit.
They come tumbling
down dirty
beaches;
sand
is washed
at the same
time my
face
is, now,
washed.

Penguins

Put on the heaviest coat
you've got; you're going to
visit the coldest place on Earth.

With a formal suit built on,
everyday is an occasion.
Most say they're just some
tuxedoes, while other's say
they're wearing normal suits.
What does it think it's wearing, though?
Fur and blubber? Why, yes, of course,
this animal is the king of the aquatic birds.

Flightless, yet with wings, it waddles
around the beautiful landscape like a child
exploring a new house for the first time.
Freezing waters filled with predators
are the perfect place for a summer swim.

Right before winter,
it's no time for holiday shopping;
it's time to march along the panorama
from their lives to their births -- mating,
calling to each other when they reach
their final destination -- creating new lives.

Death comes easily. By hunters,
winter, age, it appears. Birds come
from the sky to attack the young babies
who are too new for the world to know
the dangers. [Leapord] seals come charging
along in the icy oceans, attacking like a hunter
will with a gun to a deer. Mating is a time for
new life and new death. The dance of the egg
pass is deadly, while the walk to a lover
is just as frightening.

Pack your things on up,
and leave these penguins
at rest! Disturb them not;
life lasts only for a minute
next to death.

SUN
yellow
beautiful

Golden auroras
surround the lush sphere of
the master of the great sky.

"a heavenly, blazing circle"

Space

Solitary winds are the children
of the colorful comets
piling one on top the other
the tiny rocks and breeze.
Atmospheric boundaries appear
to rotate 'round a
powerful star or beautiful
body of the night --
collecting
food to set in a pack and send to a bright man.
Cliched meteoroids crash into
the water-planet's moon.
Everything is at peace
[except for the deadly showers]
in the wonderful land of a pure vacuum.

Invincible Warrior

Drums ring into the skies,
trumpets blast into the sea.
A warrior marches through the crowd
like a soaring eagle, free.

Enemies and allies join to fight
in a battle with gallons of blood.
Weapons attack forcefully,
causing a chromatic flood.

An invincible warrior
raises his sword,
clashing into the fight,
moving with the vast horde.

Swords on swords, fists on fists,
the enemies are actually winning!
The invincible warrior takes a blow;
failure is soon beginning.

Cries cry into the sky,
voices sing of memories.
The heroes grave is soon dug
atop the gray-black emeries.

Opening his harsh-hazel eyes,
the warrior takes a stand.
Assaulting the hostile forces,
he finally paints the land.

Drums ring into the skies
in a battle with gallons of blood.
Clashing into the fight,
the invincible warrior takes a blow
atop the gray-black emeries.

Leaves breeze into the
haven of the dry forest --
falling from fake skies.

Survivors wait for
their bodies to change. The dry
dirt will be no more.
