Welcome to my little poetry corner :)
They say that it is all around us. They say it is us. They say it is everything we've ever known. That which is eternal. That which cannot die because it was never born. That which cannot be seen, because it is the seer. That which cannot be known, because it is the knower. That which cannot be heard, because it is the listener. How can you feel that which feels? That which senses, which feels, which experiences. That is the infinite. And that is what I am. And that is you are. It is what we are.

Soul
Perfect silhouettes, against plum-kissed skies. A choreographed dance Swooping and singing, We see as we watch, From down below. They’re like the children of the sky. Free-spirited, and lost in play. Unconstrained, Lost in the flow of the wind. They skim the water’s edge, Weaving through the movement, Harmonizing the beating of their wings They are the Birds in the Sky.

The Birds in the Sky
A furry little kitten, white, dotted with black. No dominance, it’s co-dominance! Neither allele could make it through. Running far ahead, collapsing on the way. Beauty shows in her phenotype. Unfortunate signs in her genotype. Kitty is diseased, for heredity be cruel, for her father killed by illness too. Kitty, a beauteous hybrid, Her mother, angelic, snowy white. Her father, dark and eerie. What’s the probability? Kitty be unique, neither her mother or father, finding a tad of both. One Dominant or two Recessive alleles? Neither. Stuck in the middle, Lies my Kitty.

Kitty
I feel it coursing through my blood The untamed electricity. Zipping through my veins. Drops containing shattered dreams, Missed opportunities. Others with love, Warmth, beautiful feelings. Energy prickled its way up my arms, Bursting throughout my weak frame. I needed it now. A time of despair and loneliness. It felt good- Giving a spring to feet. Having not been used in ages. I’m restless, now in a frenzy, Unable to control the happiness I haven't felt in so long. Somehow it comes. A smile, Its spreads across a face of stiff muscles. And forever sustained frowns. My energy is like shreds of a new life. Torn, ready to take off for a new soul, young or old. I become energetic, like a bolt lightning. I crack my bones, Twist my neck. I am the Zombie. Rising from the dead.

Of Two Worlds
From the alluring meadows of plants, and the enchanting wonders that encompass it. Each organism unique, none as much as even bleak. As we grow and split, cell by cell. Animals grow with development, Autotrophs harness sunlight, and breathe in food. An unknown stimuli, compromising all we'll know. Leaving animals free of their golden glow. Their response will soon show, animals in exile from their once snug homes.

Stimuli
There was once a little girl who held a rose She ran through gardens Feeling grass beneath her toes She sensed sand stinging her feet And snowflakes freezing her hands A face brightened with Joy With Happiness and Love Years passed by, But the girl knew It would never be the same Time went on and they couldn’t be stopped. They ravaged through countries Killing the forests with great pride and joy Just for a shred of gold and material wants. The girl wanted a voice A voice to speak up But they never listened The girl soon forgot The color of the sand The feel of the snow The everlasting sun All was lost The girl grew up She stopped caring- about Roses Forgetting the animals, moon, and stars Now she was them Thick masses of smog now a sky No more plants No more blue skies No more wandering along the shoreline No more falling snowflakes on our tongues Eventually, there was no sun Sun lamps And plaster brown grass There were no plants, animals, and eventually we. Don't you see? We are destroying ourselves Piece by piece.

Forgotten Joys
A wonderful blue, strong and bold. A marvelous place, with much to see. Our delightful oceans, and our sea. A marvelous world where so many lurk, Where we sharks, crustaceans, and octopi work. We live free, oh so carefree. The oceans hold strength, power, and control. Without them, our lives would surely fall. We must thrive with mouths held high. Unlike humans, who take far more than they need, We shan’t be corrupted by such greed. They **** our oceans. They **** each other. We mustn't give in to the evil above. We speak for the dead. Whose souls have turned to dust, With only skins left behind. Which all life will become, if we **** our great oceans. For if we **** them, we **** our Earth too. All creatures, all life, Goes with her too. Such is the future, unless our oceans are saved, From the greedy. Who are causing destruction. That they themselves can never escape.

What if Fish had a say?
Islands of trash are forming. Plastics are swarming. The forgotten fish, With Fishing nets adrift. Plastic. It never goes away. The killer that cannot be killed. Our fish are dying, Our baby dolphins are crying. Plastic. Bottles thrown to float, Choking throats of the dying. They’re eating the rotten, Our forgotten friends. Plastic. Trash is thrown to float, Caps get stuck in sea turtles throats, Our oceans are too lovely, To make them all turn ugly, With all this plastic pollution. Once a beauty, Our oceans are filthy But maybe someday, The oceans will once again live in peace.

Plastic
R~, a name so vibrant, Teeming with endless vitality, She was named to flow through the ripples of the stream. Lacing within the folds of clear liquid, Weaving through the movement, Breathing in, out. Unconstrained, forever free, traveling with currents. Spilling, gushing out from the motion, Rising above to disappear, Breathing in, out. Formulating in little crystal droplets, Swirling into cotton candy in the sky. Transforming into birds, fish, happy things. Breathing in, out. Shapes churning into sudden wisps of thick gray, Consuming brightness, leaving darkness. Deafening booms of anger, bursting streaks of blinding white. Pouring from the sky, endless invisible beads, Heavy, weighing the petals of flowers down, Collecting in pools of reflection. The soft pitter-patter, a lullaby to the ear, Falling once again upon the stream, Merging with the currents of energy, then slowing to a calm, Breathing in, out. Oh so vibrant, Teeming with endless vitality, Flowing through the ripples of the stream.

Breathing in, out
The Great Barrier Reef A beauty born out of rock and sand Seldom touched by human hand An image of beauty Slowly demolished By the unpolished The Great Barrier Reef An unexplained bleaching Its beauty compelling, Its color expelling. It lays in pain, Forever longing a voice. The Great Barrier Reef It burns with heat A half now surrendered To the changes from above A feeling unknown Whirlpools surging Destroying all we’ve known. The Great Barrier Reef She’d given up Hope. The destruction will never stop, Her perseverance now lost. But maybe someday, The world will once again live in peace. The Great Barrier Reef
