planet

so distant and spinning
amidst nothingness
life or not,

i am.

sometimes stormy
and comparatively a giant
among others,

i am.

sustaining life
protecting the seeds
to add to this universe,

i am.

and someday - intelligence
will spark on me
and wonder where

is she?

and maybe, eventually
she will find
the love that protected
and fed
and sustained
and enabled

her.
i am.
