An Ode to the Earth

Steadfast Angel in the sky You guard me like a giant North Star Bigger than any object up so high And bigger than the Sun and every star Dazzling display of colors Green, white, brown and those vast blues Streaks of gray, like feathers Their spiral formations make me muse Your crescent phase makes me wonder Why I am the object of comparison for lovers Monotonous white phases I offer No match for the beautiful phases you deliver Comfortable you keep your resident I get too hot in the day and too cold during nights Shade from the scorching Sun for hours you present I can repay for a few minutes; then from humans I get slights No experience of seasons, rain and snow Or of the water flowing through rivers Bored of those Sunny days and starry nights Feeling jealous for I have water only in craters Have watched your changing landscapes, Catastrophes, nuclear explosion and Amazon fires Global warming a reason the brown portion enlarges Humans welcome as guests not as colonizers
