Meet Us at the Water

For Love of Gaia

Not the flaming Sun

Nor the gleaming Moon,

Not the blazing Stars

Across Heaven strewn,

No planet we’ve known

Can even compare

With Gaia’s true grace,

A beauty so rare.

Sunday 160 is a creation of Monkey Man. If you’d like to participate or check-out other 160s visit him here!

Battle Cry

The chance to love and laugh,

To truly learn and grow,

Watch our children’s children

Run and play and know

Human expectations

Surpassed because we dared,

United in the glory

Of this planet we all shared.

Before another moment

Slips away into the night

Hold up the torch of wisdom

And project it into light.
