AS THE WORLD TURNS UPON ITS MAGNETIC AXEL
LOOKS SO PEACEFUL ONE COULD FORGET THE CHAOS
AMIDST COUNTLESS STRUGGLES AND TORMENTED FRAZZLE
YET ALL THE WHILE FROM SPACE
ASTRONAUTS NEVER FAIL TO BE TRANSFIXED AND BEDAZZLED
BY EARTH'S BLUE GREEN SANDY LUSH SPHERE
APPEARING SLOWLY THROUGH NIGHT AND THEN DAY
CONTINENT'S MAGNIFICENT LUSTRE
PROPAGATED THROUGH NATURE IN IMMEASURABLE DISPLAY
THOUGH ALL STAYS MOTI0NLESS EVER CONSTANT
FOR MAN TO INHABIT AND COMMANDEER
WATER WHICH ALCHEMICALLY MAJESTICALLY SUSPENDS
AROUND ITS PERFECT SPHERE
IN THE AIRLESS MOSTLY UNKNOWN BLACKNESS BEYOND
THUS FAR ALIEN LIFE DESPITE CONSPIRACY THEORIES
UNABLE TO BE PROVEN NO EVIDENCE TO ABSCOND
EVERY DAY THUNDER STORMS THRASH THEIR ANGRY RUMBLES
LIKE ROLLING BREAKING GIANT WAVES
THRASHING AND CRASHING LIKE GIANT SYMBOLS.
THEN AS VIOLINS MELODIOUS MUSIC
SWEETLY TRICKLE AND FADE AWAY
LIGHTENING STRIKES A MONOCHROME OP ART
DAZZLING SHOOTING STAR SHROUDS
ACCENTUATING EACH COUNTRY FOR JUST SECONDS
THOUGH A VIEW NEVER FORGOTTEN
IN AWESTRUCK MAN'S MIND'S EYE
LASTING FOR TIME IMMEMORIAL
BEYOND THE END OF NEVER
SINCE TIME PRIMORDIAL
EARTH'S ANCIENT EXISTENCE UNFATHOMABLE YET STILL
IT'S HISTORY FOREVER METAMORPHOSING
IT'S WONDERS EVER MULTIPLYING
