Gleaning the planet

in search of treasure

tackling obstacles

difficult to measure

Looking for love

going from place to place

encountering unity

experiencing grace

Surprised

there is so much to share

kindness and compassion

life really does care

Spirit soars

no longer needing a ship

love continually surrounds me

feeling quite hip

Leaving the planet

taking the treasure above

sharing with the universe

the blessing of love

The market is filled

with unique finds

having keen insight

I exhibited mine

Imploring a technique

that is seldom used

each feature is highlighted

so not to be confused

A shell so unique

its beauty unmatched

a story to tell

a need to attach

Looking closer

hearing a faint sound

peaceful music

calming to those around

A small blue color

a universe of its own

life in the ocean

never alone

Home from the market

displayed on a shelf

visitors admire it

like magic from an elf

The shell brings thought

as people ponder its life

now bringing comfort

the soul of the afterlife

Standing on the roof

as far as the eye can see

calm waters abound

a wonderful day to be free

Out of sight

the volcano blows

a fault line moves

a wave begins to grow

Traveling faster

aided by the wind

gaining strength

seemingly no end

There is a warning

the horn makes a loud sound

people screaming

running to higher ground

The wave rushes

looting the land

debris everywhere

even taking the sand

The waters recede

fortunately no one is hurt

valuables are gone

all that is left is dirt

The volcano is quiet

lulled back into sleep

life is restored

until the next time we meet

Hacking the trees

excited at the find

an old mill

a sign of the times

Trending into the past

the river breached its banks

causing some damage

misplacing some planks

The river changed direction

now the mill is in a stream

leaving its life to the imagination

an exciting dream

Repairing the damage

the wheel begins to spin

water gushing through it

productive again

Visitors come

excited to see the past

a new town surrounds it

history alive at last
