An ode to that which enables life to exist here on Earth
The lifeless rock thought to be of impact generated birth
The satellite that maintains our axis and controls the tide
The one that from the ground, we only ever saw the same side.
And further out, a world over three hundred times the Earth's mass
A guardian who intercepts any comet that shall pass
An orb of fluid with moons that seem like worlds in their own right
The largest of all the planets the ancients could see by night.
And Earth as we know it could not be without the light of Sol
The star that defines the center for the system as a whole
From the sun comes the heat and light that keeps the whole world alive
For plants and all similar beings to be able to thrive.
Earth trembles under
Mountains rise into the clouds
Golems are walkingFire warms the inside
Burst forth and incinerate
Release the phoenixWind swept ascending
Icy chill permeates skin
Futen sends blessingsWater nourishes
Turbulent wave forms crushing
Awaken krakenWooden fortresses
Shelter flora and fauna
Rest well, you dryadsStone fortified shell
To preserve the landscape's form
As giants reclineLightning surges down
Raise glass from sand, raze tree tops
Thunderbird travelsMetal ore refined
Honed and sharpened by mankind
Human kill human
sun is out
morning clouds
and somehow the day is begun,
on the horizon
a hawk glides
with the tip of the wing,
if you listen
you might hear its cry,
beautiful midsummer day,
peace finds its song
and another year
creeps along
